I could understand if these were definition in a header, but why
do you think we need to have unnecessarily long identifiers (e.g.
by prefixing all of the defines here with FAM10H_MMIO_CONF_BASE_)
in places like this? After all, one of the two goals of using a macro
here at all is to keep things small and simple...

But sure, if just the names hinder acceptance, I can fold this and
the original patches together and use less ambiguous names.
