Probably the reason for all of these non-kernel-isms is that this
isn't a kernel file.  From the top of the file:

 * NOTE: This file is copied verbatim from the ChromeOS EC Open Source
 * project in an attempt to make future updates easy to make.

So the source of truth for this file is
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/ec/+/master/include/ec_commands.h>.

Someone could probably submit a CL to that project to make it a little
more kernel-ish and then we'd have to see if the EC team would accept
such changes...
