[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] proc-info: wrong sizeof argument in malloc function

[Kuba Kozak]

From: Michal Jastrzebski <michalx.k.jastrzebski at intel.com>

Coverity reported that an argument for sizeof was used improperly. 
We should allocate memory for value size that pointer points to,
instead of pointer size itself. 

Coverity issue: 144523, 144521
Fixes: 7ac16a3660c0 ("app/proc-info: support xstats by ID and by name")
