My personal preference is for static const since it's less error prone,
though had to use #define for the ones used in array sizing. Happy to change
to #define if that's the style though.

These aren't intended to be exposed as an API anywhere, just commented
for future code readers (including me). Is kerneldoc still appropriate?

The 48 bit identifier is an I3C Provisioned ID. It has a similar purpose to
an ethernet MAC address but for a different protocol. I think it might cause
confusion to code readers if it were passed to ethernet functions.

checkpatch noticed this one too, but the existing I3C functions return
ENOTSUPP so it needs to match against that.

I'll change the ones with a device available, that one in particular can be
removed anyway.
