Right but all these platform patches here were acked from respective
platform folks. I assumed that they might have valued the simplicity
in switch case statements, while also dropping off the __SXXX/__PXXX
macros, which is the final objective. Looks like that assumption was
not accurate.

I will try and rework the patches as suggested.
