Sure. That's a better choice than removing the config option dependency of
the fields struct v4l2_subdev.

I originally wrote them like that in order to avoid writing essentially the
same code three times over. If there will be more targets, the same repeats
further, should one write those functions open for all different macro
arguments. That's why it was a macro to begin with.

True as well. You could simply change the macro to include the full function
name. This was not suggested in review back then AFAIR.
