Subject: [PATCH v3 2/7] crypto: remove extraneous pointer usage in gnutls certs
Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2025 15:12:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251020141237.2621796-3-berrange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251020141237.2621796-1-berrange@redhat.com>

The 'gnutls_x509_crt_t' type is already a pointer, not a struct,
so the extra level of pointer indirection is not needed.
