Compiling kernel/bpf/core.c with W=1 causes a flood of warnings:

kernel/bpf/core.c:1198:65: warning: initialized field overwritten [-Woverride-init]
 1198 | #define BPF_INSN_3_TBL(x, y, z) [BPF_##x | BPF_##y | BPF_##z] = true

98 copies of the above.

The attached patch silences the warnings, because we *know* we're overwriting
the default initializer. That leaves bpf/core.c with only 6 other warnings,
which become more visible in comparison.
