Subject: [PATCH 2/3] [media] DaVinci-VPBE-Display: Improve a size determination in two functions
Date: Fri, 08 Sep 2017 12:32:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <d4fc91b4-4850-b756-d297-fcebdc8d7131@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e980c48c-9525-4942-a58e-20af8a96e531@users.sourceforge.net>
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2017 10:50:32 +0200
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 according to the Linux coding style convention.
