Right, I was thinking about it from the point of view of letting the
user of that structure (which could be in userspace) know what the
contents are.  In other words, I don't see why we should have some of
the fields be opaque outside of the kernel and not others (not
including any that really can't be interpreted by userspace in a
meaningful way).
