Will rename _rsvd0 to reserved and add a zero-check in v2:

  if (hdr.reserved != 0)
          return -EINVAL;

Same for _pad0: will rename to pad and add zero validation.

The flags field was placeholder code that was never wired up — there are
no flag values defined or used anywhere. I will remove the field entirely
in v2 to keep the ABI clean.
