Hi,

Since you're working on this could I suggest that you use labeled
elements, this gccism make the initialization above way more cleaner, safer and
easy to read :-) This is being used in the kernel in places like the FSes, the
TCP/IP stack and lots of other places.

We don't need all the NULLs, as uninitialized entries will be zeroed
out by the compiler.

Here is how it would look like:
