You feel like I am singling you out for special nit-picks but honestly
that isn't true.  When I'm reviewing code, I am mechanical about it.  I
have made the same review comment to everyone who introduced a do while
statement like this.

Here is one from May 19.

Kernel programmers are actually very paranoid about macros.  There are
107 macros like this in the kernel so it's fairly rare.  But obviously
there are still side effect bugs in the kernel.
