Subject: rfc: ARRAY_AND_SIZE

hi list,
while looking at Julias nice patch. i notice the ARRAY_AND_SIZE macro
it looks like that:
#define ARRAY_AND_SIZE(x) (x), ARRAY_SIZE(x)
I see problem: hiding an argument in function calls is bad.
(personally i hate hiding arguments in function calls therefore i am not objective)
the next problem is that it is defined 6 times in different locations.
(see:http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=ARRAY_AND_SIZE)
But so far it is used in the ARM tree mostly.
Is there any policy on that ?
