How about a label for drop_local_skb?
switch (skb->data[0] & 0xe0) {
case LOWPAN_DISPATCH_IPHC: /* ipv6 datagram */
local_skb = skb_clone(skb, GFP_ATOMIC);
if (!local_skb)
goto drop;
local_skb = process_data(local_skb, dev, chan);
if (IS_ERR(local_skb))
goto drop_local_skb;
local_skb->protocol = htons(ETH_P_IPV6);
local_skb->pkt_type = PACKET_HOST;
if (give_skb_to_upper(local_skb, dev)
!= NET_RX_SUCCESS) {
kfree_skb(local_skb);
goto drop;
}
dev->stats.rx_bytes += skb->len;
dev->stats.rx_packets++;
kfree_skb(skb);
break;
default:
break;
}
}
return NET_RX_SUCCESS;
drop_local_skb:
kfree_skb(local_skb);
drop:
dev->stats.rx_dropped++;
kfree_skb(skb);
return NET_RX_DROP;
}
