Who is we? I haven't noticed that in the last 2 years. Plus Linux is rather
using structs than defines, or am I wrong?

This started because Ley introduced a new platform where the structs were
nearly the same but *some* registers have changed. Adding new structs
that were nearly the same seemed more mess than using the same defines.

I'm not pressing this into any direction, we can continue using structs
if that's the consensus.
