No big deal anyway.
What some people like myself do is make #defines for most
things:
#define SIRFSOC_LCD_GROUP_OFFSET 3
#define SIRFSOC_LCD_GROUP_MASK 0x7FFFF
#define SIRFSOC_LCD_ENABLE BIT(5)
sometimes I even define shifts for masks etc.
But a comment inline explaining the magic bits is just as
fine with me.
Yours,
