I think that macro is pretty useless and nothing
but obfuscation now.

The comment above it doesn't seem useful either.

How about just removing and replacing the uses
like this?

Hi there,

I'm not really contributing anything other than getting code checkpatch clean, whilst

I relearn C and get a feel for various parts of the kernel.

checkpatch cleanliness, while OK for some parts of the
kernel, should not be an end-goal.

checkpatch is really a tool to "check patches".

If you want to submit neatening only patches, please
do your changes in drivers/staging/

Otherwise, please look for code that isn't simply a
style neatening bit, but something that actively makes
reading the code easier, makes the object code smaller
or faster, reduces complexity, adds extensibility,
etc, etc...

cheers, Joe

Hi Joe

Thanks for the Advice, I fully intend to making more meaningful contributions
when my confidence in writing C is better than it is at the moment. I'll concentrate
on making any changes to staging whilst I learn and get to grips with git, and
continue to look through the rest of the kernel tree as a learning exercise.

I am extremely new to all this and a little overwhelmed, but by looking and not doing
anyhing i'll never learn anything.

Sounds like a good plan to me.  welcome btw.
