In dt282x_ai_insn_read() we call this macro like:
wait_for(!mux_busy(), comedi_error(dev, "timeout\n"); return -ETIME;);
Because the if statement doesn't have curly braces it means we always
return -ETIME and the function never succeeds.

This macro is very ugly, btw.

The bug was introduced by commit 18e7e78e945527d9cb570a17f0835815f1794c2f in mainline. And yes, it is ugly.
