5 and what it means is an ABI. If it is ambiguous and needs to be more 
specific, then you need new numbers for all of those specific types.

If it is just a rename, I prefer it is done from the start.

Seems a bit redundant to have both comment text and define. The only 
part missing from the defines is 'MIPI'.
