drivers/staging/mei/interface.c: take size of pointed value, not pointer
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Sizeof a pointer-typed expression returns the size of the pointer, not that

(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>

expression *e;
type T;
identifier f;
@@

f(...,(T)e,...,
-sizeof(e)
+sizeof(*e)
,...)
// </smpl>
