[PATCH] pinctrl: exynos5440: fix invalid use of sizeof in exynos5440_pinctrl_probe()

From: Wei Yongjun <hidden>
Date: 2013-03-14 13:59:41
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: pin control subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Linus Walleij, Linus Torvalds

From: Wei Yongjun <redacted>

sizeof() when applied to a pointer typed expression gives the
size of the pointer, not that of the pointed data.
