Someone should invent a keyboard which delivers an electric shock when the
operator types "#define".   In the meanwhile, I get to do the honours.

Please don't implement in a macro anything which can be implemented in C.

All I needed was a shorthand to access driver_data, for both read and write
access (you cannot do the latter with C, unless you decouple read and write).

kmap_atomic() cannot fail.  On i386, at least.  If it can fail on any other
arch then we have a biiiiig problem.  (Multiple instances of this)

Thanks, fixed!
