From b201c111c87a4cf36d009abe57c62bd14d17d762 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Viresh Kumar Date: Fri, 5 Aug 2011 15:32:29 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine/amba-pl08x: pass (*ptr) to sizeof() instead of (struct xyz) As mentioned in Documentation/CodingStyle, The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following: p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...); The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed to a memory allocator is not. This patch replaces (struct xyz) with *ptr at several occurrences in driver. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Acked-by: Linus Walleij Signed-off-by: Vinod Koul --- Reading git-format-patch failed
