Hi Greg,
Thanks for your comment.
In my opinion, MACRO almost same as a '#define'.  May I know how do 
you call such definition?

And could you give your comments in previous patch, not the 'final' one?
In another pci_ids patch, you break it in v3 and break it here again in v2.
Honestly,  it's positive for whole project. But it's negative  for contributor 
and maintainer. 

Finally, it's welcome to point out the error.
