Please have a look at Documentation/CodingStyle Chapter 7: Centralized exiting
of functions. Especially this part:

The goto statement comes in handy when a function exits from multiple

Yes please. It's not uber important but short functions and paths are
generally favoured when debugging and reviewing code.
