So what is your suggestion exactly? Use defines or write comments?

As I understand, you want to replace the "3 - 1" with "2", and then
write comments to explain that this "2" is the result of "3 - 1".

Why do you want to do this? You are doing useless things and you force
readers of this code to think about useless things.

You said this was "Linux kernel style"? Why? Which sentence of the
Linux kernel style guide suggests your way is better than my way?
