Subject: [PATCH] DECnet: Use container_of() for embedded struct
Date: Mon, 8 May 2017 15:31:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170508223144.GA53216@beast> (raw)
Instead of a direct cross-type cast, use conatiner_of() to locate
the embedded structure, even in the face of future struct layout
randomization.
