MSVC++ compiler does not allow initializing a struct while explicitly initializing a member in the struct.
Not allowed: static const struct eth_addr a = {{ .ea= { 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff }}}; Alowed: static const struct eth_addr b = {{{ 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff }}}; *An extra curly brace is required for GCC in case the struct contains a union.
