[PATCH] staging/iio: Use correct argument for sizeof

From: Peter Huewe
Date: Mon Jan 21 2013 - 16:10:46 EST


found with coccicheck
sizeof when applied to a pointer typed expression gives the size of
the pointer

The semantic patch that makes this output is available
in scripts/coccinelle/misc/noderef.cocci.
