Good question if this affects the code generation.

Yep, and it would make it on par with the existing _FIFO_SIZE() that has
FIELD_GET() there.

I believe one may put there static_assert():s.

Perhaps auto ?

But I still think the % and / paired are clearer (for reading and understanding)
even if they do not affect code generation. Also I think the plain number of the
maximum size is better for the same reasons we do not have it for 16.
