Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mtd/ftl: Improve another size determination in ftl_add_mtd()
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 10:38:06 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <24ba7545-98a6-7afa-b85c-7d6a41500627@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4a5a265e-96c8-5fe6-487a-92a0d47a91da@users.sourceforge.net>
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

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