Please group these two includes with the others, above, in

How about _check_reserved_field() instead?

Ugh, 'ptr' please.

Please use the "early out" pattern:

	for (ptr = field; ptr < field + size; ptr++) {
		if (*ptr) {
			return -1;
		}
	}
	return 0;

Note:  field + size
Note:  ptr++

And check_reserved_field() here.  No need to abbreviate.
