Is there any advantage to this? The way 'goto' is used in the filer is
analogous to the 'try...finally' block in more structured programming
languages, so I don't think that nesting everything more deeply is an
improvement.

However, if you can convince Linus to apply a similar patch to the kernel,
I'll see what I can do about applying this one ;-)
