I find that the developers often just specified the numeric value
when calling a macro which is defined with a parameter for access permission.
As we know, these numeric value for access permission have had the corresponding macro,
and that using macro can improve the robustness and readability of the code,
thus, I suggest replacing the numeric parameter with the macro.

Excuse me, but why are you CC'ing everybody and their 217 cousins on
these patches?

The fact that someone had a patch applied in a directory close to this
file within the last 3 years is not justification for spamming them with
this.
