interesting... I don't know anything about cleanup.h, will
read this code and the patch later, but I guess I understand
the idea.

Stupid/offtopic question... Can't we change guard()

	-#define guard(_name) \
	-	CLASS(_name, __UNIQUE_ID(guard))
	+#define guard(_name, args...) \
	+	CLASS(_name, __UNIQUE_ID(guard))(args)

and update the current users?

To me

	guard(rcu);
	guard(spinlock, &lock);

looks better than

	guard(rcu)();
	// doesn't match scoped_guard(spinlock, &lock)
	guard(spinlock)(&lock);

And this will make guard() consistent with scoped_guard().

No?

Oleg.
