    The following build error occured during a parisc build with
    swap-over-NFS patches applied.
    
    net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
    net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: (near initialization for 'memalloc_socks')
    net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
    
    Dave Anglin says:

    > ((atomic_t) { (0) }) });
    
    The above line contains two compound literals.  It also uses a designated
    initializer to initialize the field enabled.  A compound literal is not a
    constant expression.
    
    The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
    literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
    consist of constant expressions.
