Hmmm ... it failed to compile when I tried it yesterday, but I think I 
must have bodged the copypaste from the email to the header file, and 
then just assumed the error message meant something was wrong with the 
way all those low-precedence operators were stacked together. Anyway I 
just did it again and it compiles OK now, so it gets my

... although I still think my version is (slightly) easier to read. Or 
it could be improved even more by moving the increment of 'iter' to the 
end, making it one line shorter and perhaps helping the compiler a little :)

#define gen8_for_each_pml4e(pdp, pml4, start, length, temp, iter)      \
         for (iter = gen8_pml4e_index(start);                           \
              iter < GEN8_PML4ES_PER_PML4 &&                            \
                 (pdp = (pml4)->pdps[iter], length > 0);                \
              temp = ALIGN(start+1, 1ULL << GEN8_PML4E_SHIFT) - start,  \
              temp = min(temp, length),                                 \
              start += temp, length -= temp, ++iter)

Or, noting that 'temp' is never used in the generated loop bodies, we 
could eliminate the parameter and make it local to the loop header :)

#define gen8_for_each_pml4e(pdp, pml4, start, length, iter)            \
         for (iter = gen8_pml4e_index(start);                           \
              iter < GEN8_PML4ES_PER_PML4 &&                            \
                 (pdp = (pml4)->pdps[iter], length > 0);                \
              ({ u64 temp = ALIGN(start+1, 1ULL << GEN8_PML4E_SHIFT);   \
                     temp = min(temp - start, length);                  \
                     start += temp, length -= temp; }),                 \
                 ++iter)
