Hmm... is there any way to override that and insert such a line into a 
git commit?

I think the board header file (or some header factored out from a set of 
similar boards, which the board header includes) is exactly where it 
belongs, given that it's implemented in a board C file, and the C call 
is not a public API.  Some boards just hard code it as a constant. 
Others might want to call some other function, maybe with arguments (in 
fact, I see a dummy argument of zero passed in many if not all existing 
calls to these functions -- why?).

Duplicating large chunks of code is bad, but extremism in avoiding 
anything that even looks similar to something else, and breaking the 
logical isolation of said things in the process, is bad as well.
