This datasheet can't be got by customers, even under NDA.

It don't need a default config
For applcation writers, they can just init it with zero data, and only
set value for the part they concerned.

As for ABI, i have checked there is no mismatches.
Those structures is 32 bit aligned both in 64bit/32bit env, since
there is no 64bit value.
"__attribute__ ((packed))" can avoid mismatches happen when we add a
64bit value to those structures.

As robin said, enums and bools are not guaranteed to be consistent
between different compiler, so it's a potential risk.
I have replace bools with unsigned char and enums with unsigned int.
