No... You've just changed error handling to success handling and added
some new indent levels and made a tangled spaghetti exit path even more
tangled. Spoderman wants to know, "Why u do dis?"
It should look like:
diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c
index d0d4335..7617a22 100644
--- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c
+++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c

static void usb_dvobj_deinit(struct usb_interface *usb_intf)
See? No indenting, no if statements. Just one statement after another.
