Subject: [PATCH 06/25] net: mvpp2: Improve two size determinations in
 mvpp2_probe()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2017 08:38:32 +0200

Replace the specification of two data structures by pointer dereferences
as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size
determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
