Subject: HID: fix a potential bug in pointer casting
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3ba5619f06300cd0944150901ed20de87483ad8c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

HID: fix a potential bug in pointer casting

Don't directly cast list_head * to foo *, this works only when list
is the first member of struct foo, and we should not make the assumption
how members are ordered in the structure.

i.e. struct *f = (struct *f)pos will work if:
	struct foo {
		struct list_head list;
		int i;
	};

but will fail if:
	struct foo {
		int i;
		struct list_head list;
	}
