Subject[PATCH 2/2] Input: gamecon: Improve a size determination in gc_attach()
From
Date
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2018 16:30:58 +0100

Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
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.
