Ooh a new bikeshed... :)

FWIW, 'xfs_meta_bad' doesn't really tell me anything about what the
macro is for, particularly since the logic that determines whether
metadata is bad is fed into it. IOW, I read that and expect the macro to
actually do something generic to determine whether metadata is bad.

Also having taken a quick look at the next patch, I agree with Christoph
on embedding if logic into the macro itself, at least with respect to
readability. It makes the code look like a typo/syntax error to me. :P I
agree that the existing macros are ugly, but they at least express
operational semantics reasonably well between [_RETURN|_GOTO]. If we
really want to fix the latter bit, perhaps the best incremental step is
to drop the branching logic and naming portion from the existing macros
and leave everything else as is (from the commit logs, it sounds like
this is more along the lines of your previous version, just without the
name change). From there perhaps we can come up with better naming
eventually. Just a thought.
