Subject: [PATCH 12/25] net: mvpp2: Improve a size determination in two
 functions

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2017 10:40:32 +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.
