OK, let me go see if there's another way to sanely write those.


Is this less offensive?

restart:
	scoped_guard (rcu) {
		list_for_each_entry_rcu(..) {
			...
			if (err == -EAGAIN)
				goto restart;
		}
	}


That has the explicit scope on the rcu and now the goto explicitly exist
it.

Gonna have to think what to do about the continue ...
