I don't like do nothing gotos, but I also don't like churn too much.

It doesn't really make sense to do:

		rc = -EIO;
		...
		return rc;

We should probably preserve the error code?  There is a second
"return rc;" later which is more annoying.

drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe.c
  2274          /*
  2275           * If the fcoe_ctlr_device is to be set to DISABLED
  2276           * it must be done after the lport is added to the
  2277           * hostlist, but before the rtnl_lock is released.
  2278           * This is because the rtnl_lock protects the
  2279           * hostlist that fcoe_device_notification uses. If
  2280           * the FCoE Controller is intended to be created
  2281           * DISABLED then 'enabled' needs to be considered
  2282           * handling link events. 'enabled' must be set
  2283           * before the lport can be found in the hostlist
  2284           * when a link up event is received.
  2285           */
  2286          if (link_state == FCOE_CREATE_LINK_UP)
  2287                  ctlr_dev->enabled = FCOE_CTLR_ENABLED;
  2288          else
  2289                  ctlr_dev->enabled = FCOE_CTLR_DISABLED;
  2290  
  2291          if (link_state == FCOE_CREATE_LINK_UP &&
  2292              !fcoe_link_ok(lport)) {
  2293                  rtnl_unlock();
  2294                  fcoe_ctlr_link_up(ctlr);
  2295                  mutex_unlock(&fcoe_config_mutex);
  2296                  return rc;
                        ^^^^^^^^^
This is the same as "return 0;" and I guess it's supposed to be a
success return?  But it would look more clear if we changed it to return
a literal instead of rc.

  2297          }
  2298  
  2299  out_nodev:
  2300          rtnl_unlock();
