Actually in thi file we already have

struct PACKED request_replace_body {
	uint8_t m_body;
	uint8_t k_space_id;
	uint8_t m_space_id;
	uint32_t v_space_id;
	uint8_t k_tuple;
};

that's why I named it this way. But sure renamed to
have _bin postfix.

I tried to ask, which end up in a flame war. I gave up. I think the
region_alloc is the same as malloc and etc and we already have a
number of places where we use implicit casting (grep region_alloc).
So I think we can use both approaches, while I prefer a short from
which is allowed by C standart.
