What's the point of this ?

There is no "hardcoded array size" there to begin with,
and using that silly macro obscures the actual calculation.

So now, instead of being able to verify correctness at a glance,
I have to go off and research some silly macro and verify that
it does the right thing.

It is a standard cleanup for all kernel code, and it does make the code more readable to the casual reader / quick skimmer.
