Macros that look like function calls and are also lvalues tend to be troublesome. I know what you're trying to achieve, you want a named way to access this so that the intent and semantics are clear. But I'd rather you do something that provides a way by which normal struct member accesses do the job, and your earlier patches achieved this.
