A strange goto-avoidance fetish here? Why not stick to the same style
as the function already had:
error = jbd2_journal_freeze(journal);
if (error)
goto out;
EXT4_CLEAR_INCOMPAT_FEATURE(sb, EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_RECOVER);
error = ext4_commit_super(sb, 1);
out:
return error;
Easier to read the patch, easier to add new potential error cases to this
function later.
