[PATCH] drm/ast: Allocate initial CRTC state of the correct size

I've stumbled upon this too. Trivial fix was posted but stuck in review.
This is patch from Thomas Zimmermann changed according to suggestions by
Daniel Vetter from https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11356157/


The ast driver inherits from DRM's CRTC state, but still uses the atomic
helper for struct drm_crtc_funcs.reset, drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset().

The helper only allocates enough memory for the core CRTC state. That
results in an out-ouf-bounds access when duplicating the initial CRTC
state. Simplified backtrace shown below:

Allocating enough memory for struct ast_crtc_state in a custom ast CRTC
reset handler fixes the problem.
