[PATCH v2 02/17 2/3] mfd: abx500-core: Improve two size determinations in abx500_register_ops()

Replace the specification of two 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.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
