Hi Jiri,

This pattern is already broken in the same function by this:

        /* set promiscuity level to new slave */
        if (dev->flags & IFF_PROMISC) {
                err = dev_set_promiscuity(port_dev, 1);
                if (err)
                        goto err_set_slave_promisc;
        }

        /* set allmulti level to new slave */
        if (dev->flags & IFF_ALLMULTI) {
                err = dev_set_allmulti(port_dev, 1);
                if (err) {
                        if (dev->flags & IFF_PROMISC)
                                dev_set_promiscuity(port_dev, -1);
                        goto err_set_slave_promisc;
                }
        }

So I guess I should also "break" it or do it as you've just
suggested and add another label "err_set_slave_allmulti"
so that we are at least consistent with this.

Thank you!
