[PATCH] Staging: ccree: ssi_aead.h: Fixed a pointer declaration error.

[srishti sharma]

Hey,

checkpatch.pl generated two errors , because the dereferencing
operator was placed next to the structure name instead of being placed
with the pointer .

for eg:
  struct scatterlist* srcSgl; (this was giving an error)

whereas
 struct scatterlist *srcSgl; (this did not give an error)


Both of them will compile , but the second one is a better
representation of it and does not produce an error on running
checkpatch.pl .

Regards,
Srishti
