You aren't adding a helper macro, you are just redefining the existing
macros using a different one. But I can't see why this is needed, what
does this solve that vmbus and other uses of the existing macros don't
need? In other words, what makes mei so special that it needs a "lower"
level macro than every other subsystem?
