[PATCH 2/2] pcmcia/rsrc_nonstatic: Improve a size determination in three functions

From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2017 21:07:39 +0100

Replace the specification of data structures by variable references
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.
