Just to state the (maybe?) obvious: With the more complicated expression
it is asserted that the build breaks if on mips32 the definition
disappears e.g. because arch/mips/include/asm/addrspace.h isn't included
implicitly any more or the macro is renamed to unify with mips64's
CKSEG1ADDR. With just `#ifndef KSEG1ADDR` the driver would break without
the compiler noticing and put it's fbdata somewhere in the address
space.

I guess it's subjective, but my preference would be to keep
the more complicated expression (despite being complicated).

An alternative would be:
