no,
kernel-hacking guides say you should not initialize it *explicitly*,
because gcc have done that you for *implicitly* already.
So initializing it explicitly does take it out of bss, even though it's
initialized to zero and that GCC flag is on? So, for example:
static struct file_system_type my_file_system_type =
{
/* ... */
. owner = THIS_MODULE
} ;
If this is not compiled as a module, the .owner member is initialized to
zero, and so is not in the bss? So I should do this:
/* ... */
#ifdef MODULE
, . owner = THIS_MODULE
#endif
} ;
Right?
