Just to have mentioned it in public: If the goal really is to (long term)
retain the ability to use such expressions with inner whitespace and
without parentheses or quotes, then reverting a few more changes done in
preparation may be desirable:

a1b7023447d1 bfin: correct macro use in gas testsuite
2231ac9b9e88 ia64: correct macro use in gas testsuite
c0e9aca554e3 MIPS: correct macro use in gas and ld testsuites
6e892703fedb TilePro: correct macro use in gas testsuite

One might think that cfa18744d435 ("Arm: correct macro use in gas
testsuite") should also fall into this group, but imo the situation is
a little different there.
