Yeah, except that's ugly beyond belief, plus it's literally not what
we do in the kernel.

Really. The "-Wshadow doesn't work on the kernel" is not some new
issue, because you have to do completely insane things to the source
code to enable it.

Just compare your uglier-than-sin version to my straightforward one.
One does the usual and obvious "use a private variable to avoid the
classic multi-use of a macro argument". And the other one is an
abomination.
