Subject: [PATCH 4/5] MIPS: VPE: Improve a size determination in two functions
Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 22:54:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cf85a732-6901-4eca-2848-71e35e7ce95d@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e866716c-5ce4-3658-f944-e310007db127@users.sourceforge.net>
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 22:04:17 +0200
Replace the specification of two 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.
