The current error handling in init_srcu_struct_fields() is a bit inconsistent. If init_srcu_struct_nodes() fails, the function either returns -ENOMEM or 0 depending on whether ssp->sda_is_static is true or false. This can make init_srcu_struct_fields() return 0 even if memory allocation failed! Simplify the error handling by always returning -ENOMEM if either init_srcu_struct_nodes() or the per-CPU allocation fails. This makes the control flow easier to follow and avoids the inconsistent return values. Add goto labels to avoid duplicating the error cleanup code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
