Could you explain why you think your patches are a good idea? Defining
an extra macro that is only used in a single well-known place appears
a bit pointless to me. Also, looking through the existing drivers,
less than one out of ten is currently doing it this way.
IMHO, we should rather convert those to use the MODULE_*() macros
directly.
