Alternatively to fixing up the style here, did you consider just
removing these two macros altogether and calling [read|write]q
directly throughout the kpc_i2c driver (per the '//FIXME' comment)?

Unless, I'm misunderstanding something, these macros are shadowing the
functions [in|out]b_p, which already exist in io.h. [in|out]b_p are for
8-bit i/o transactions and [read|write]q are for 64-bit transactions, so
shadowing the original [in|out]b_p with something that actually does
64-bit transactions is probably potentially misleading here.
