In "uffd-stress.c" & "uffd-unit-tests.c". address of char variable having
garbage value (uninitialized) is passed to 'write' syscall triggers
warning.
uffd-stress.c:246:39: warning: variable 'c' is uninitialized when
passed as a const pointer argument here
[-Wuninitialized-const-pointer]
uffd-unit-tests.c:581:31: warning: variable 'c' is uninitialized
when passed as a const pointer argument here
[-Wuninitialized-const-pointer]
so the fix is to assign char variable to '\0' to prevent writing of
garbage value.
