So, the kernel has an idiom for this in lib/string.c:

/**
 * memchr_inv - Find an unmatching character in an area of memory.
 * @start: The memory area
 * @c: Find a character other than c
 * @bytes: The size of the area.
 *
 * returns the address of the first character other than @c, or %NULL
 * if the whole buffer contains just @c.
 */
void *memchr_inv(const void *start, int c, size_t bytes)

No need for any array of some particular size :-)

Its been there for a while:

    lib/string.c: introduce memchr_inv()

    memchr_inv() is mainly used to check whether the whole buffer is filled
    with just a specified byte.
