Looks good beyond the s/micro/macro typo fix, but i'd suggest to 
keep these old defines for one more kernel cycle, then do a 
final removal of all remaining uses, in a single patch.

That way we'll save ourselves from quite a bit of unnecessary 
build breakages (as your patchset shows there's still a lot of 
users of the old macros), as these definitions get moved around, 
reintroduced, etc.

Conflict resolution becomes easier as well - if such a patch 
conflicts with some ongoing work then we can by avoid the 
conflict by just dropping that hunk and delaying that particular 
conversion to the 'final' stage.
