A new diagnostic in clang-17 now produces the following build error:
drivers/gpu/drm/tests/drm_exec_test.c:41:3: error: cannot jump from this
indirect goto statement to one of its possible targets
41 | drm_exec_retry_on_contention(&exec);
| ^
include/drm/drm_exec.h:96:4: note: expanded from macro
'drm_exec_retry_on_contention'
96 | goto *__drm_exec_retry_ptr;

include/drm/drm_exec.h:79:33: note: expanded from macro
'drm_exec_until_all_locked'
79 | __label__ __drm_exec_retry;
drivers/gpu/drm/tests/drm_exec_test.c:39:2: note: jump enters a
statement expression
The GCC manually currently states that:
>> Jumping into a statement expression with a computed goto (see Labels
>> as Values) has undefined behavior.
So the diagnostic appears correct, even if codegen happened to produce
working code.
Looking closer at this code, while the original combination of statement
expression, local label, and computed/indirect goto GNU C expressions
were clever, a simple while loop and continue block might have sufficed.
This approach might not work as expected if drm_exec_until_all_locked
"loops" can be nested, but that doesn't appear to be an existing use
case in the codebase.
