Application of sizeof to pointer yields the number of bytes of the pointer,
but it should use the length of buffer in the code.

Thanks for fixing this! I just noticed that the debugfs for BPMP is broken on -next right now and this fixes it. We should add the fixes tag ...

Fixes: 06c2d9a078ab ("firmware: tegra: Reduce stack usage")

Otherwise ...
