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; } Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
