[PATCH 2/6] [IPV4]: Small style cleanup of the error path in rtm_to_ifaddr.

From: Denis V. Lunev <hidden>
Date: 2008-01-31 12:01:34
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

Remove error code assignment inside brackets on failure. The code looks better
if the error is assigned before condition check. Also, the compiler treats this
better.
