[Crash-utility] [PATCH] Move the initialization of "boot_date" to task_init()
The "boot_date" is initialized conditionally in the cmd_log(), which may
display incorrect "boot_date" value with the following command before
running the "log -T" command:
crash> help -k | grep date
date: Wed Dec 22 13:39:29 IST 2021
boot_date: Thu Jan 1 05:30:00 IST 1970
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The calculation of "boot_date" depends on the HZ value, and the HZ will
be calculated in task_init() at the latest, so let's move it here.
Fixes: c86250bce29f ("Introduction of the "log -T" option...")
