Your patch remove redundant code, which is fine. However, and IMHO, the
code you changed was simple enough to be understand quickly. I think replacing
it with a crossed goto (even if it remove redundant code) might not be the best
option.

A solution might be to move the second loop to the top of the function so
you should be able to replace the end of the cleanup calls with:

enomem:
	ret = -ENOMEM;
free_rx:
	vnt_free_rx_bufs(priv);
	return ret;

This way, only a failed call to vnt_submit_rx_urb() should jump to
free_rx, another failed call should jump to enomem or previously defined
label, so we can correctly forward errors. With such solution it might
be worth adding a comment to describe that all error should be ENOMEM
except for vnt_submit_rx_urb(). Does that looks good to you?

Quentin
