We use goto out_* in error cases throughout our code (sorry Edsger!) and
in many cases they are not needed because they're the last check in the
function, but we still use them for consistency.

In this case, there are two "consistency" items conflicting with each
other (ie. the "break" in the last case entry is not needed, but it's
there for consistency).  Your change indeed makes the code look cleaner,
so I think the "keep-the-break-in-the-default-case" rule should win
here. ;)
