[PATCH] packet: Improve exception handling in fanout_add()

[Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@web.de>]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2023 16:30:51 +0100

The kfree() function was called in some cases by the fanout_add() function
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Thus use another label.
