drivers/video/via/viafbdev.c: correct code taking the size of a pointer
sizeof(viafb_gamma_table) is just the size of the pointer. This is changed
to the size used when calling kmalloc to initialize the pointer.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>

expression *x;
expression f;
type T;

*f(...,(T)x,...)
