Stefan drop this one, it was somehow to fix my issue at first... but
its not the real solution.
I just did a hexdump on the key and saw that the length doesn't fit
what sizeof tells me so I did that and was too happy that it worked.
The real fix would be to figure out why I have some "random" bits in
this structure... something need to have memset to zero before... I
need to check, so far I see it only in FRAG1 I guess it's related to
uncompression...
This fix will work so far... but you will get issues in short address
handling which will be filled with more padding bytes and this should
be zero, so it's all the same...
Sorry.
