  The uninitialized field 'extra_flag' of hash parameter may enable
certain feature silently. Typically, if bit0 of 'extra_flag' set, the
hardware transactional memory support will be enabled unexpectedly.

Both code should be doing same thing, since unassigned values are set to 0 by
default, and 'extra_flag' should be already set to zero with old code.

There are a few patches for same thing, I am updating all as 'Rejected', please
shout if I am missing something here.
