Antonio Borneo e5cee61879 scripts/gdb: fix 'lx-dmesg' on 32 bits arch 
[ Upstream commit e3c8d33e0d ]

The type atomic_long_t can have size 4 or 8 bytes, depending on
CONFIG_64BIT; it's only content, the field 'counter', is either an
int or a s64 value.

Current code incorrectly uses the fixed size utils.read_u64() to
read the field 'counter' inside atomic_long_t.

On 32 bits architectures reading the last element 'tail_id' of the
struct prb_desc_ring:
	struct prb_desc_ring {
		...
		atomic_long_t tail_id;
	};
causes the utils.read_u64() to access outside the boundary of the
struct and the gdb command 'lx-dmesg' exits with error:
	Python Exception <class 'IndexError'>: index out of range
	Error occurred in Python: index out of range

Query the really used atomic_long_t counter type size.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
