With the better style, but yes
...[] = {
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
};

And my point about readability. The reader, and even the author after
some time, may have no clue in this forest of the macros and castings
what's going on.

If something you want to prevent at compile time, consider to utilize
static_assert() and / or BUILD_BUG_ON() depending on the place in the
code (the former is preferred).

Yes, please add the comment that this time has been chosen to follow
data sheet recommendations.

Regular loop with a space as a delimiter and after it the condition to
check i and replace last space by \n. I.o.w. the ternary is an
invariant to the loop and no need to call it for each iteration.

Yes, but now, reading the original code again, I'm wondering why you
are not using kstrtobool().

Missed \n.

Yes, something like this. Experiment with it and choose which one is
read better.
