privsize is passed as 0 from all the symbol__annotate() callers.
Remove it from argument list.

Right, trying to figure out when was it that this became unnecessary to
see if this in fact is hiding some other problem...

It all starts in the following change, re-reading those patches...

Ok, I just had a quick look at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20171011194323.GI3503@xxxxxxxxxx/

This change was for python annotation support which, I guess, Jiri didn't posted
the patches? Jiri, are you planning to post them?

yea, as I wrote in another reply, this came in as preparation
to support python code lines, which still did not get in ;-)

also I replied that this way is probably even better for that,
so that's why I'm ok with the change

Thanks Jiri.
