I find that the developers often just specified the numeric value
when calling a macro which is defined with a parameter for access permission.
As we know, these numeric value for access permission have had the corresponding macro,
and that using macro can improve the robustness and readability of the code,
thus, I suggest replacing the numeric parameter with the macro.

NACK for the same reasons that others have rejected companion patches.

0644 is much easier to read than S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH.
