I agree with Sascha on hiding a goto statement in a macro is not a good idea.

What about introducing
static int __mtk_rtc_read_time(struct mt6397_rtc *rtc, struct rtc_time *tm, u32 *sec)
and hide the checks of return values from regmap_read and the offset check in there. You return the error code or 0.

This way the while loop would look like this:

do {
	ret = __mtk_rtc_read_time(rtc, &tm, &sec);
	if (ret < 0)
		goto rtc_exit;
} while (sec < tm->tm_sec);

Best regards,
Matthias
