[PATCH 3/8] [media] ttusb_dec: Improve a size determination in three functions

From: SF Markus Elfring

* The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.

ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition

Thus fix a few source code places.

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