x86/boot: Fix incorrect startup_gdt_descr.size
Since the size value is added to the base address to yield the last valid byte address of the GDT, the current size value of startup_gdt_descr is incorrect (too large by one), fix it. [ mingo: This probably never mattered, because startup_gdt[] is only used in a very controlled fashion - but make it consistent nevertheless. ] Fixes: 866b556efa12 ("x86/head/64: Install startup GDT") Signed-off-by: Yuntao Wang <ytcoode@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: "H.
