Ah, I had that issue before. But this should work:

 #define for_each_enum(enum_type, member)				\
	member = btf_enum(enum_type);					\
	for (int __i = 0; __i < BTF_INFO_VLEN((enum_type)->info);	\
	     __i++, member++)

Just can't use it as a single line for if statements.

	if (x)
		for_each_enum() {
		}

But we shouldn't be doing that anyway.
