Subject: [PATCH 09/13] Fix invalid structure size error during crash startup
on ppc64
The crash utility will fail to start session on ppc64 with the following
error:
# crash vmlinux vmcore -s
crash: invalid structure size: note_buf
FILE: diskdump.c LINE: 121 FUNCTION: have_crash_notes()
[./crash] error trace: 101859ac => 10291798 => 10291450 => 10266038
10266038: SIZE_verify+156
10291450: have_crash_notes+308
10291798: map_cpus_to_prstatus_kdump_cmprs+448
101859ac: task_init+11980
The reason is that the size of note_buf is not initialized before using
SIZE(note_buf) in the have_crash_notes() on some architectures including
ppc64. Let's initialize it in task_init() to fix this issue.
Fixes: db8c030857b4 ("diskdump/netdump: fix segmentation fault caused by failure of stopping CPUs")
