Use the bit flag VFIO_IOMMU_MSI_GEOMETRY_RESERVED

But maybe nobody has set these, did you intend to use
iommu_domain_msi_aperture_valid(), which you defined early on but never
used?

I'm tempted to suggest that a user could do the same math on their own
since we provide the supported bitmap already... could it ever not be
the same?

I understand the padding, but not the ordering.  Why not end with
padding?

Should these be a union?  We never set them both.  Should the !reserved
case have a flag as well, so the user can positively identify what's
being provided?
