goto statements are harmful. In any case, what I meant was to have
some sort of safety net to prevent exceptions (i.e. if I screw up and
forget a NULL check) from panicking the system.

I don't understand what you mean by that. Module code (e.g. an ioctl)
runs as some process. In the case of an ioctl, I'd assume it's the
same PID of the user process.
