The macros used were not informative and did not add any value beyond code

Ack for removing the former. For the latter, since the list is longer and
the code is used twice, I'd be tempted to convert to an inline function
taking in struct hw and returning type bool. WDYT?
I don't want to use a macro/inline function just to save on code, it has
to have some semantic meaning. Do you have any suggestions on what it is
that we'd be checking in these cases?
