Thanks for fixing this. You used v1 of your patch in netdev ML. You send to ML
second patch which removes useless initializers.

IMHO it's better to have a single patch where these 0 and NLL initializers are
removed. And that in the end Stephen Hemminger merged [1]. Could you please send
new version, which uses this patch and mentions the upstream commit?

Kind regards,
Petr
