GCC 15's new -Wunterminated-string-initialization notices that the 32
character "flash_cookie" (which is not used as a C-String)
needs to be marked as "nonstring":
drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_cmds.c:2618:51: warning: initializer-string for array of 'char' truncates NUL terminator but destination lacks 'nonstring' attribute (17 chars into 16 available) [-Wunterminated-string-initialization]
2618 | static char flash_cookie[2][16] = {"*** SE FLAS", "H DIRECTORY *** "};
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Add this annotation, avoid using a multidimensional array, but keep the
string split (with a comment about why). Additionally mark it const
and annotate the "cookie" member that is being memcmp()ed against as
nonstring too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
