The 'hwaddr' type is defined in "exec/hwaddr.h" as:
hwaddr is the type of a physical address

All definitions use the 'HWADDR_' prefix, except TARGET_FMT_plx:
$ fgrep define include/exec/hwaddr.h
#define HWADDR_H
#define HWADDR_BITS 64
#define HWADDR_MAX UINT64_MAX
#define TARGET_FMT_plx "%016" PRIx64
^^^^^^
#define HWADDR_PRId PRId64
#define HWADDR_PRIi PRIi64
#define HWADDR_PRIo PRIo64
#define HWADDR_PRIu PRIu64
#define HWADDR_PRIx PRIx64
Why are there both TARGET_FMT_plx and HWADDR_PRIx? Why not just use
HWADDR_PRIx instead?
