Fix it by removing the unnecessary '0' initialiser, leaving the
braces.
hello Russell, thanks a lot for reporting!

this surely fixes the -Wmissing-braces, but then -Wpedantic
would complain about usage of GNU extension (I just tried on godbolt
with x86_64 gcc 11.2):

warning: ISO C forbids empty initializer braces [-Wpedantic]

While we are fixing this, probably the best thing is to initialize the
'dst' struct member  to 0: in my understanding this should be sufficient
to let the compiler fill all the struct members with 0.

Oh, and I might have inserted a similar thing in openvswitch kernel
module (see [1]), if you agree I will send a patch that fixes this as
well. WDYT?
