Indentation seems to be off here (also in other places; please double
check.)

I don't think you can add this unconditionally if you want to keep this
migratable. This should be done via a property (as for deflate-on-oom
and free-page-hint) so it can be turned off in compat machines.

This should probably be conditional in the same way as the free page hint
queue (also see above).

This object does not have any accessors; what purpose does it serve?

Please split off any update to these headers into a separate patch, so
that it can be replaced by a proper headers update when it is merged.
