[PATCH 2/2] Input: matrix_keypad: Improve a size determination in matrix_keypad_probe()

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfr...@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2018 13:43:16 +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.
