Commit fcd8843c406b46433857ae45e5e9d84b01a7d20b breaks on older
compilers which cannot process initializers for anonymous structures:
+const nfs4_stateid invalid_stateid = {
+ {
+ .seqid = cpu_to_be32(0xffffffffU),
+ .other = { 0 },
+ },
+ .type = NFS4_INVALID_STATEID_TYPE,
+};

A similar bug was fixed by e0714ec4f9efe7b86828b0dcc077fd8f5d8e5e91 but
I don't think the same approach can work here.
