I'm not loving the "if (0)" with the labels inside of it. But it's the only way I can see to make a statement expression like this work, since you can't have a "return" inside of it.
On powerpc for this kind of stuff I have been using do { } while (0);
with a break; in the middle, see for instance __put_user() or
__get_user_size_allowed() in arch/powerpc/include/asm/uaccess.h
