The various changes make it impossible for a single userspace implementation to work with different kernel versions, so let's just drop the condition to avoid breaking userspace.

Sorry, but no. We want to be compliant with the specification. If there are older still-maintained stable trees which are not working, we need to backport a fix to them, but we're not allowing uncompliant implementations.
Aren't we allowing non-compliant implementations now? The spec says the value must be 1 but since v4.7 this code has allowed all non-zero values.
At this point I don't think the kernel can disallow any values of Reserved1 without breaking someone's userspace.
