[PATCH 6/7] aacraid: Improve determination of a few sizes

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Sun Aug 21 2016 - 03:27:38 EST


From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sun, 21 Aug 2016 08:04:48 +0200

Replace the specification of data structures by references for variables
as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size
determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
