You could use this in most of the places where sizeof is being called.
I'll repeat my point here.  I see no value in hiding
the size of the structure behind a defined symbol.

Use sizeof(*pointer) (if possible) or sizeof(struct foo) in
the code; it makes it very clear that it's not something
other than a simple object/structure size.
