The constant example is the magic numbers we need to embed into

things like interrupt modes, making them human readable would be a

win.

Wasn't there a patch for named constant support in dtc a while back?

I'm not sure that going down the CPP path is better than the
possibility of named constants having a different syntax from
macros/functions.  It would be one thing if someone were actively
working on the latter, but this paralysis seems to be a case of the
perfect being the enemy of the good.

I don't know, it doesn't appear to have been integrated (and we still
need to be able to or things together).
