The parameter to ped_partition_flag_next() [5] should always have been numeral 0 cast to an enumeration and never the NULL pointer. Fixes this commit [6] from 2004-12-27 which changed the parameter from 0 to NULL. [1] define NULL as nullptr when used in C++11 or later https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit?id=98e688a9da5e7b2925dda17a2d6820dddf1fb28 [2] NULL vs nullptr (Why was it replaced?)
