[RFC][PATCH 01/20] prepare for write access checks: collapse if()

[Dave Hansen]

We're shortly going to be adding a bunch more permission
checks in these functions.  That requires adding either a
bunch of new if() conditions, or some gotos.  This patch
collapses existing if()s and uses gotos instead to
prepare for the upcoming changes.
