Even after applying patches to osi_probe.c openafs 1.4.1 did not
compile on Linux 2.6.9-34 kernels (and others).
The reason: a NULL is passed to the module_param_array macro which
then attempts to take the address of that NULL.
The attached patch defines a correctly typed static zero and passes
that one instead.
