Are you sure this is ok?  Do these devices need this additional
"protection"?  Do they have the problem that these macros were written
for?

Same for the other patches you just submitted here, I think you need to
somehow "prove" that these changes are necessary, checkpatch isn't able
to determine this all the time.
