To be honest, I do think it's right thing to do - DT by itself is
documentation and previously DT maintainers were not very happy regarding
introducing more defines instead of const.

Adding such defines will introduce big headers in Linux common or  
platform folders again which we've just got rid of. 

If smth is unclear - comments can be used in DT.

Just my 5c.
