[RFC PATCH] nptl_db/db_info: fix the incorrect initial size for dtvp

[Junling Zheng]

When debugging a program on ARMv7 with thread-local storage declared using
"__thread", attempting to print a thread-local variable will result in the
following message:

Cannot find thread-local storage for Thread <snip> (LWP <snip>), executable
file /tmp/tls: capability not available

This can be traced back to uclibc libpthread/nptl_db/td_thr_tls_get_addr.c
which gdb uses to look up the address of the TLS. The function returns
TD_NOCAPAB due to a mismatch in size between the DTV pointer and the size
recorded in the db description. The problem lies in libpthread/nptl_db/db_info.c
which initializes the db with the sizeof the union dtv. Instead it should
be the sizeof a pointer to union dtv.

Fixed the initial size for dtvp to sizeof a pointer, instead of sizeof
the union.
