Hi; Coverity reports some issues with this change:

Here we write the contents of the struct down the pipe,
but we have not initialized all its fields; specifically,
msg.reserved is not initialized and so those bytes will
be random. We'll also transfer random contents from the
stack in the padding, potentially.

This is CID 1420267.

The easy fix is to zero-initialize the whole struct at the start:

   struct vhost_msg_v2 msg = {};

Same here (CID 1430270)
