I think this somewhat differs from what you had originally scetched. Eg, if I didn't misread the patch earlier - you had:

#define MT6370_CHG_LINEAR_RANGE(_rfd, _min, _min_sel, _max_sel, _step) \
[_rfd] = {                                                             \
	...

instead of the
+#define LINEAR_RANGE_IDX(_min, _min_sel, _max_sel, _step)	\
+	{							\
I think the latter (without the []-index) is more generic, and very welcome. However, the IDX-suffix does no longer make much sense, right? I suggested name LINEAR_RANGE_IDX for macro taking the array index as it would also be useful when dealing with arrays.

Do you think you could still drop the IDX from macro name or keep the array index as the original did?

Maybe ideally introduce both macros (unless Mark has objections), one with the [_rfd] and suffix IDX, and the other w/o the suffix and w/o the [_rfd]?

Thanks for the improvements and the patience! ;)

Yours
