Ah, right, I have even missed this fact, that you are using the same index 
in the inner loop as in the outter loop.

Quite unreadable indeed :)

I am not getting it. Why can't you do just something like


	for ( .... ) {
		/* outter loop */
		if (error) {
			for ( ... ) {
				/* inner loop */
			}
			goto out;
		}
	}
out:
	hid_info(....);
	return;
