Subject: [PATCH 01/10] staging: irda: Improve a size determination in 20
 functions

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2017 19:35:56 +0200

* Replace the specification of data types 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.

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.

  ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition

  Thus fix the affected source code place.
