#1562202 — [PATCH 3/5] um: port: Improve size determinations in port_data()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2017 22:20:14 +0100

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.
