[PATCH 07/11] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Improve size determinations in five functions

Sat Jan 21 05:25:54 AEDT 2017


From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2017 16:23:30 +0100

Replace the specification of 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.
