I think we could actually kill them off entirely.  They are used as
arguments to the macros that setup the mmio table.

Thefunctions to build these tabls are already organized by families,
so we'd need relatively few conditions to just build them the right
way.  There also are some runtime checks in the callbacks, but they
seem entirely superflous as far as I can tell.

Only the cmd parser is a bit messy.  So maybe we could keep these
constants just for the cmd parser inside of gvt for now (and clean
that up later) and remove them entirely from the mmio table.
