Doesn't this cause a warning (should be "(void *)(uintptr_t)1" instead)?

Is it possible to make this a scope, like
WITH_RCU_READ_LOCK() {
}
? Perhaps something like
#define WITH_RCU_READ_LOCK() \
WITH_RCU_READ_LOCK_(_rcu_read_auto##__COUNTER__)
#define WITH_RCU_READ_LOCK_(var) \
for (g_autoptr(RCUReadAuto) var = rcu_read_auto_lock();
(var); rcu_read_auto_unlock(), (var) = NULL)
where the dummy variable doubles as an execute-once guard and the gauto
cleanup is still used in case of a "break". I'm not sure if the above
raises a warning because of the variable declaration inside the for
loop, though.
Thanks,
