The current error handling code of hso_create_net_device is
hso_free_net_device, no matter which errors lead to. For example,
WARNING in hso_free_net_device [1].

Fix this by refactoring the error handling code of
hso_create_net_device by handling different errors by different code.

Obviously this wasn't intentional.
This is a copy-paste error. I am sorry. :(

But use gotos here.
OK, I will change it in version v2.

This is Come From naming style where it says what failed on the line
before.  It's not helpful because we can see what failed.  What we need
to know is what the goto does.

Use Free the Last thing style.  Where you just keep track of the most
recent successful allocation and free it.  That way you don't free
things which aren't allocated, you don't double free things, you don't
dereference uninitialized variables or error points.  Plus it's a very
simple system where when you're reading code you just have to remember
the last thing that was allocated.  Every function must clean up after
itself.  Every allocation function needs a free function.  The goto
names say the variable that is freed.
That's a good rule to follow. Will change the patch following this rule.

In a loop then how Free the last thing style works is that you free
that partial allocation before the goto.  And then do a

        while (--i >= 0) {
                free_c();
                free_b();
                free_a();
        }
You have told me this rule. But I think the handling of this loop does
not need to be such complicated.
But in this case your code is fine and simple enough.  No need to be
dogmatic about style so long as the functions are small.
Thanks.

These gotos are freeing things which haven't been allocated.  Which is
harmless in this case but puzzling.
I will revise this label in the v2 version.
