This define seems unused?

Actually, what use would it ever have? Should not every
struct setup_data on the setup_data linked list have a
valid (not NONE) type? And perhaps that switch statement
that confused me:

should not "break" silently on an unrecognized data->type, but
rather complain bitterly?
