[PATCH 06/24] sys_swapon: simplify error flow in alloc_swap_info

From: Cesar Eduardo Barros <hidden>
Date: 2011-02-12 18:49:46
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - swap, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Chris Li, Kairui Song, Linus Torvalds

Since there is no cleanup to do, there is no reason to jump to a label.
Return directly instead.
