From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
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.
