[PATCH 1/1] vboxsf: fix building with GCC 15

From: Brahmajit Das
Date: Tue Jan 21 2025 - 11:27:24 EST


Building with GCC 15 results in build error
fs/vboxsf/super.c:24:54: error: initializer-string for array of ‘unsigned char’ is too long [-Werror=unterminated-string-initialization]
24 | static const unsigned char VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE[4] = "\000\377\376\375";
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Due to GCC having enabled -Werror=unterminated-string-initialization[0]
by default. Separately initializing each array element of
VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE to ensure NUL termination, thus satisfying GCC 15
and fixing the build error.
