Previously the presence of header and data blocks were communicated
in-band which decreases code readability and makes it unnecessary hard
to add support for new hardware.

Note: both OsmoBTS and OsmoPCU have to be modified to take advantage of
extended ph_data_param structure.

do you intend to use it as a bit mask or why the b101 and b111?

This might or might not change the size of the struct osmo_phsap_prim and then we have an ABI issue. For such cases we have created the TODO-RELEASE file to indicate that we need to bump the SOVERSION on the next release.

Good point, totally forgot about TODO-RELEASE.
As for values - I've took them directly from off-list comment by Harald. 
I suspect there might be other places where hardcoded values are used.

cheers,
Max.
