WDYT? ISO C may forbid it, but the kernel build uses -std=gnu89 - which is c89 with GNU extensions. One of the GNU extensions is to allow the empty initialiser, which means "initialise all members of this struct to zero". However, as I say, this was found using gcc 4.9.4 under 5.14, where 4.9.4 is a permissable compiler. However, under 5.15-rc it is no longer so the patch should not be applied to development kernels. It leaves the question open whether it should be fixed in stable or not, since stable kernels _do_ permit gcc 4.9.4. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up.
