Look at how these defines are used. Take RTL8192E_PHY_REG_ARRAY_LEN
as an example.

It's only used to create the PHY_REGArrayLength define. Layers upon
layers of indirection. Get rid of the RTL8192E_PHY_REG_ARRAY_LEN
completely just do:
#define PHY_REGArrayLength 1
Except get rid of that as well and use ARRAY_SIZE().
What I'm saying is don't send a v6 of this patch. Just step back and
try to figure out how to get rid of all this code instead of renaming
the variable.s
regars,
