EA is another field which looks like it should be an enum, as with the
others this shouldn't be a blocker and could be done incrementally.

Align arguably too though really it's just encoding the relevant power
of 2 with the enum coming from the fact that it's limited to at most 2KB
alignment so a Field may well make more sense.
