drivers/atm: Correct code taking the size of a pointer

Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

sizeof(TstSchedTbl) is just the size of the pointer.  Change it to the size
of the referenced data.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// 
@@
expression *x;
expression f;
type T;
@@

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