This is a loop. With -ftree-loop-distribute-patterns, the default at
-O2, this is optimised to
memset(params->reserved, 0, ...);
(which is perfectly fine, since memset is required to be there even
for freestanding environments, this is documented!)

-fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns . But, as always, read up on it, see
what it actually does (and how it avoids your problem, and mostly: learn
what the actual problem *was*!)
This might help with various loops, but it doesn't help with the matter
that this patch fixes, which is struct initialization. I just tried it
with the arm64 patch to no avail.
It very much *does* help. Try harder? Maybe you typoed?
