Right, for your taste. Like I said, I feel this is very subjective. To
me, and many other I2C driver owners (I just checked how many other I2C
drivers also appear to prefer to use XXX_SHIFT and there are a lot of
them), using XXX_SHIFT makes it more clear that the define is intended
to be used for bit shift operation.

Again, this is subjective. Personally I do not feel this is "cleanup one
step further". To me, this change will make the code less clear on the
intended operation.
