Two update suggestions were taken into account
from static source code analysis.

Markus Elfring (2):
  Improve a size determination in four functions
  Delete an error message for a failed memory allocation in digital_in_send()

[PATCH 1/2] NFC: digital: Improve a size determination in four functions

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Mon, 22 May 2017 14:11:01 +0200

Replace the specification of four 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.

Omit an extra message for a memory allocation failure in this function.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Both patches applied to nfc-next, thanks.

Cheers,
