Revert "Staging: drivers: rtl8188eu: use sizeof(*ptr) instead of sizeof(struct)"
This reverts commit 99aded71 ("Staging: drivers: rtl8188eu: use sizeof(*ptr) instead of sizeof(struct)"). This commit is wrong, as adapt->HalData has a type of "void *", so now we are allocating a much to small struct, which causes the driver to overwrite random memory which leads to a non working driver and various system crashes.
