Correct.

Good point. Nothing really.

The enum constant use was likely a first step at making this
typo-proof, but you need to convert everything and use sym
files for assembly. Thus I find this easier and equally typo-proof.

Done. I've removed only the FEATURE_INDEX enum which is the only
problematic case for -Wundef.

This fixes all FEATURE_INDEX* warnings.

No regressions on x86-64 (and you'd notice, I messed this up once
and the whole testsuite falls over because it breaks ifuncs).

That looks fine.

Fixed.

commit 8f1df5cf9d8d30c0747532301dca3cf9c99fbc8e

    Fix -Wundef warning for FEATURE_INDEX_1.
    
    Define FEATURE_INDEX_1 and FEATURE_INDEX_MAX as macros
    for use by both assembly and C code. This fixes the
    -Wundef error for cases where FEATURE_INDEX_1 was not
    defined but used the correct value of 0 for an undefined
    macro.

Cheers,
Carlos.
