Hey Xianting,
Firstly, neither this nor the other version of this message made it to
the mailing list - and since I usually use lei to get my mails that is
a bit of a problem :(

Yeah, I know that that is what IS_ENABLED() does, it's just in this
situation it does not look very intentional & more like disjoint bits
of copy-paste. It's fine though, leave it as it is.

Thanks,
Conor.
