It feels a bit camped and not as readable to me:
#define STK3310_REGFIELD(name) \
do { \
data->reg_##name = \
devm_regmap_field_alloc(dev, regmap, \
stk3310_reg_field_##name); \
if (IS_ERR(data->reg_##name)) \
return dev_err_probe(dev, PTR_ERR(data->reg_##name),\
"reg field alloc failed.\n"); \
} while (0)
Removing a level of indentation makes it much better
#define STK3310_REGFIELD(name) ({ \
data->reg_##name = devm_regmap_field_alloc(dev, regmap, \
stk3310_reg_field_##name); \
if (IS_ERR(data->reg_##name)) \
return dev_err_probe(dev, PTR_ERR(data->reg_##name), \
"reg field alloc failed\n"); \
})

({ }) is used throughout the kernel, and is documented as such[1]. I
don't see a reason to avoid it, if it helps readability.
