Petersen" Cc: LKML , kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org From: Markus Elfring Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2017 21:55:14 +0200 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.
