[PATCH 05/24] ste_dma40: Improve a size determination in d40_of_probe()

From: SF Markus Elfring

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