Thanks for the cleanup! I spotted a typo in patch 13/13. Apart from that, I only
have one comment. You are initializing the temp variable like 'val' to 0 and
then ORing it with some fields. Here the initialization part is not necessary.
You could just write the first field directly instead of ORing with a 0
initialized variable.

Rest LGTM!
