bpf: fix a (false) compiler warning



An older GCC compiler complains:

kernel/bpf/verifier.c: In function 'bpf_check':
kernel/bpf/verifier.c:4***:13: error: 'prev_offset' may be used uninitialized
      in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
   } else if (krecord[i].insn_offset <= prev_offset) {
             ^
kernel/bpf/verifier.c:4***:38: note: 'prev_offset' was declared here
  u32 i, nfuncs, urec_size, min_size, prev_offset;

Although the compiler is wrong here, the patch makes sure
that prev_offset is always initialized, just to silence the warning.

v2: fix a spelling error in the commit message.
