Joel Colledge ca210ba32e scripts/gdb: fix lx-dmesg when CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set
When CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set, struct printk_log contains an
additional member caller_id.  This affects the offset of the log text.
Account for this by using the type information from gdb to determine all
the offsets instead of using hardcoded values.

This fixes following error:

  (gdb) lx-dmesg
  Python Exception <class 'ValueError'> embedded null character:
  Error occurred in Python command: embedded null character

The read_u* utility functions now take an offset argument to make them
easier to use.

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.
