[PATCH] staging: mt7621-dma: sizeof via pointer dereference

From: Benjamin Sherman
Date: Thu May 30 2019 - 20:04:53 EST


Pass the size of a struct into kzalloc by pointer dereference. This
complies with the Linux kernel coding style and removes the possibility
for a bug if the pointer's type is changed.
