A simple little macro to clear a pointer and return the old value. This
is useful for writing
value = *ptr;
if (!value)
return;
*ptr = 0;
...
free(value);
in a slightly more concise form:
value = fetch_and_zero(ptr);
if (!value)
return;
...
free(value);
with the idea that this establishes a pattern that may be extended for
atomic use (using xchg or cmpxchg) i.e. atomic_fetch_and_zero() and
similar to llist.
