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. ]

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.
