Subject: [PATCH 12/17] spi/topcliff-pch: Improve size determinations in
 pch_spi_probe()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>

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