Here we experienced an BT error - BT rkill allocation failed,
so jump is to "register_bluetooth_error".

The second jump to "register_bluetooth_error" is in another case of BT error:
when its rfkill registration failed.

It is the same label since if BT rfkill allocation had failed
rfkill_destroy(bluetooth_rfkill) call in cleanup does nothing but we still
need to possibly unregister WiFi rfkill that might have been registered in
a previews block (and then fall through to next label to destroy WiFi rfkill).

It would be possible to have separate jump labels skipping unnecessary
rfkill_destroy() calls on allocation failure, but this would mean
that we would have 7 labels in such small block of cleanup code.

Cleanup labels already are in reverse order with regard to registration:
Registration:
1) WiFi,
2) BT,
3) WWAN,
5) GPS.

Cleanup:
1) GPS,
2) WWAN,
3) BT,
4) WiFi.
