IMHO, you shouldn't add new obfuscated code, but delete it.

Jakub,

The more drivers authors will obfuscate in-kernel primitives and reinvent
their own names, macros e.t.c, the less external reviewers you will be able
to attract.

IMHO, netdev should have more active position do not allow obfuscated code.

Thanks
