The sentinel NULL value does not make sense and is a syntax error in a
structure definition.
Remove it.

What error? It's an initialiser following a designator in a structure 
*declaration*, and the corresponding bin_attrs member is a pointer, so 
NULL is a perfectly appropriate value to initialise it with.

Of course that is redundant when it's static anyway, and indeed wasn't 
actually intentional, but it's also not doing any harm - the cosmetic 
cleanup is welcome, but is not a stable-worthy fix.

Thanks,
Robin.

Yes, you are correct. The warning only occurs in my series which changes
bin_attrs to a union [0] and I got confused due to some missing and
inconsisteny build bot feedback.

Agreed, it's not worthy for stable.
Actually I want to make this patch part of a series, so please ignore
it for now.
