I would prefer to have this as a slightly more compatible

        union {
                __u32 pad;
                __u32 pio;
        };

Also, please add a check that "pio <= 1".

This would catch most cases where userspace passed garbage in that field
and we'd also make the remaining bits available for future features.

Thanks.
