Radio Yerewan answers: In principle, yes.

But then the definitions a closely tied to the following macro
(hence the lowercase in the last string), so it's not _that_
useful for a general definition.

If we were to move the constants into a header I'd have
to re-do all the macros (up to and including DEVICE_ATTR)
building up the sysfs attributes. Which currently doesn't
give any benefits whatsoever.

But if someone insists ...

Ok.

Bzzt. The "else" branch is required, the "if" branch can be skipped.

(hch was wrong! Quick, mark the day!)
