No, it's not preferred - and I don't see any stray spaces added in the
code added by:

Anyway, please just remove it.

The overwhelming majority of those are not standalone defines like
yours, but nested/conditional defines where the space is justified:

#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
# define MAX_IO_APICS 64
# define MAX_LOCAL_APIC 256
#else
# define MAX_IO_APICS 128
# define MAX_LOCAL_APIC 32768
#endif

Thanks,
