* The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.
ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition
Thus fix an affected source code place.
* 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.
