Subject[PATCH 3/3] Input: bcm5974: Improve a size determination in bcm5974_probe()
From
Date
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2018 21:21:11 +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.
