[PATCH -next] um: virt-pci: Fix the application of sizeof to pointer

[Yang Li]

sizeof() when applied to a pointer typed expression gives the size of
the pointer.

Clean up coccicheck warning:
./arch/um/drivers/virt-pci.c:192:20-26: ERROR: application of sizeof to
pointer

Oops. I guess I only tested on 64-bit where this is the same, and in
fact on 32-bit it also wouldn't matter since you can't even do 64-bit
reads there :)

A Fixes: tag would be nice, but otherwise
