Subject: [PATCH 1/2] alpha-module: Improve a size determination in module_frob_arch_sections()
Date: Thu, 11 May 2017 13:54:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7e1572c7-8c8e-7b1b-ae56-cbdf1ad23fbc@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <21258632-0cde-f750-5864-406dc6dfad20@users.sourceforge.net>

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Thu, 11 May 2017 12:54:29 +0200

Replace the specification of a data structure 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.
