Happy with your judgement on this, and I think we've done enough
bike-shedding that existant code wins.

Hmm, I've split the "make u16 perm const" into its own patch instead,
since that's a nice independent change.

In future I prefer inlines to macros.  In fact, since this is just in
params.c it's not too bad to just open-code them in the two places
they're each used.

But that's nit-picking.

Applied, thanks!
Rusty.
