No, I mean whatever we write today, we have to convert to the canonical
form when we have i915_drm.h. Just enum's make me more uneasy than
defines (esp. with a C++ compiler). I actually quite like that if we
locally #define I915_ENGINE_CLASS_RENDER A then we get an error if we
import a kernel header #defining to B, but LOCAL stands out and is easy
to grep.
