Also it will not make sense to have the field name differnent from the draft.

That is the danger of defining user facing things against a draft which
is constantly changing.

I totally understand your point of keeping the user API unchanged. 

Sorry, we are stuck with the current name.

For the time being, Can i submit another patch updating the "reserved" bits to be "tag" and just adding a comment next the "first_segment". 
In the comment we can mention that this represent the "last_entry" field of the Segment Routing Header (SRH).
