Don't move it.

For a 'utility' type define like this that is just about cutting
down on code repetition it is nice to be able to see what it does near
to where it is used.

Also, as a general rule kernel style is to not put things in a header
unless they are needed in multiple files.  There are exceptions, but
it is generally felt keeping things local to where they are used
leads to easier to review code.
