Using the defines makes it easier to search the code for a specific revision, since you would no longer get false positives for all the other '0' and '1' constants that appear in the code. It also makes it indexible by tools like LXR.

This is indeed what was done for I2C recently.
The point is that this kind of define does not bring a lot of semantic. 
But on the other hand it will definitively help the search aspect.
