The purpose of the _zero variable is to provide a valid address for a pointer to an array of length zero. All other uses of the variable take its address, but one reference to it (added in CL 147850043) converts the variable (which has type uintptr) directly to an unsafe.Pointer, producing a nil pointer instead of a non-nil pointer to a zero-length array. This typo is caught by 'go vet', but was masked for a long time by the numerous false-positive warnings for the same check (#41205). For golang/go#41205.
