[PATCH] building libtraceevent with clang

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

Hi Steven,

	I tried building perf (and thus libtraceevent) with clang and
got this one:

kbuffer-parse.c:312:7: warning: variable 'length' is used uninitialized whenever switch case is taken [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        case OLD_RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTEND:
             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kbuffer-parse.c:339:29: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        kbuf->next = kbuf->index + length;
                                   ^~~~~~
kbuffer-parse.c:297:21: note: initialize the variable 'length' to silence this warning
        unsigned int length;
                           ^
                            = 0
1 warning generated.


Please take a look if the following is what should be done:
