Appreciate the clarification and help getting this right. I'm thinking
Kees' and now Kirill's point about this patch resulting in unnecessary
manual zero initialization of the structs is probably something that
needs to be addressed.

If I created a bunch of patches to change each call site, I think the
the best is probably to do the designated field zero initialization
way.

But I can do something for powerpc special if you want. I'll first try
with powerpc matching the others, and if it seems objectionable, please
let me know.

Thanks,

Rick
