it's how things have been handled atm in the imx code. I don't have
any preference on this at all but at least either we go on with it 
or we get rid of all theses #defines. It's a matter of consistency.
The thing is that I would consider removing the imx*add* stuff to be
a cleanup and should be done in a different patch, not in a patchset
adding IPU support for imx51.

Anyway, let's wait for Sascha's point of view, he knows the imx stuff
far better than me.
