That should be prevented programatically.

Shouldn't this structure and SETUP_JAILHOUSE be defined in a header file
which can be exported to boot loaders?

Aside of that please write the struct in tabular fashion:

struct jailhouse_setup_data {
	struct setup_data	header;
	u16			version;
	....

See above.
