Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Input: max7359_keypad: Improve a size determination in max7359_probe()
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2018 13:15:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c75b2086-5b58-638a-781d-fe6c4545619a@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <95f7f53b-fa1e-8270-ae4c-5b3d721a4831@users.sourceforge.net>

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2018 13:00:10 +0100

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.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
