I think it should use ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO. However, I am not sure whether 
we can do that in 5.x because of BC reasons. It's these tiny mistakes 
that are the larger BC problems. So I would suggest that you make a PR 
for 5.6 without ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO, and one for 7 with ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO.

I think the patch looks mostly good too. I would recommend you squash 
the commits into a single commit though.

cheers,
Derick
