Is there a problem today? If not, this line isn't needed, as it sounds
like you are fixing a problem here, when all you are doing is making it
"nicer", right?

Note, the one reason you might want to do this as a #define is if you
use container_of_const() which has to be a #define. So the fact that
this was a define to start with is normal and not really a big deal.
