What do you mean by breaks here?

In the end of this macro, I intended  to have __retx = (*p & __mask)
which means the value is clean to be rotated at the end of the macro
(no need to apply the mask again): r = __ret >> __s;

Also, I assumed we are supposed to return the same variable type
as the pointer, so this is valid:
u8 a, *b, c;
a = xchg(b, c);

Is this correct?
