There isn't lot of code that we have to keep inside the macro you suggest.
Its just an if else (with single line block), which would give the parent
kobject. Nothing else.

I didn't wanted to create a macro for just that. For me an if/else is not that
big code.

Anyway, if nobody else comes on my side i can create that macro for you.
But, personally i would prefer code without such macros.
