Just spell it out:
	ret = rf69_set_xyz();
	if (ret)
		goto unwind_xyz;

Almost never do you want to instantly return.  You should clean up from
the error first.

But if you do just want to exit, that's fine too, just return.  That's
the normal way here, don't do funny things in macros (like return from a
function), that way lies madness...
