4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit c505cbd45f6e9c539d57dd171d95ec7e5e9f9cd0 ]
Some of the drivers may use the macro at runtime flow, like
struct property_entry p[10];

p[index++] = PROPERTY_ENTRY_U8("u8 property", u8_data);
In that case and absence of the data type compiler fails the build:
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_dmi.c:79:29: error: Expected ; at end of statement
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_dmi.c:79:29: error: got {
