#1641423 — [PATCH 2/2] ipack: Improve a size determination in ipack_bus_register()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

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.
