Not really a massive fan of such use of macros in the code, since I think
it makes things obscure for the casual reader. However, I see why this
approach has been taken. I think the macro code needs some documentation
explaining why this was done this way.

An alternative to this macro-fu, is to just define a single ethdev
telemetry function, and within that, take the lock and then dispatch to the
appropriate subfunction based upon the actual command coming in. The
dispatch may be slightly slower due to the additional text matching (only
from byte 8 onwards, so very short strings), but I think the code could be
a simpler in C rather than in macros, and the perf impact for telemetry is
likely to be negligible, compared to the overhead of the socket I/O etc.
