The latter, udata. You check member-by-member, but if there is padding
between fields or at the end of a struct, nothing is currently
checking it for zeroes. So probably safer to check those paddings
inbetween as well.

Yeah, I think you are right, at least for x86. Variable-sized x86
instructions pretty much rule out any alignment. It might not be the
case for fixed-sized instructions architectures, but we should cross
that bridge when we get to it.
