With GCC 15, the compiler has changed the default behavior when
initialization is used for aggregate variables. The new default
is to follow the standard (C23) and not initialize everything by
default. This breaks assumptions in some drivers and can be
lead to other bugs.
Use the new zero initialization flag to force the old behavior
of initializing everything to zero.
