That assignment was actually superfluous anyway, because crypto.desc is
zero-initialized when crypto is initialized (xt_pknock.c, ll. 110ff.):
static struct {
const char *algo;
struct crypto_shash *tfm;
unsigned int size;
struct shash_desc desc;
} crypto = {
.algo = "hmac(sha256)",
.tfm = NULL,
.size = 0
};
In fact the explicit zero-initialization of .tfm and .size is also
superfluous and can be removed:
static struct {
const char *algo;
struct crypto_shash *tfm;
unsigned int size;
struct shash_desc desc;
} crypto = {
.algo = "hmac(sha256)",
};
Adding an initializer to the variable declaration in xt_SYSRQ.c will do
the same thing. Patch attached.

Subject: [PATCH] xt_pknock, xt_SYSRQ: don't set shash_desc::flags.
shash_desc::flags was removed from the kernel in 5.1, so removed the
explicit assignment of zero to it.
In the case of xt_pknock.c, the change is backwards-compatible because
the shash_desc was already zero-initialized when the enclosing crypto
struct was initialized. In the case of xt_SYSRQ.c, we add an
initializer for the shash_desc which will ensure that all members which
are not explicitly initialized will be initialized to zero, including
.flags in the case of older kernels.
