Hi Rajesh,

It seems that using a goto-based construct in the prio_tree_next() is not justified, and using the while()-based loop is better from the coding style POV.

The patch below replaces the goto-based loop by a while-based one. However, if I overlooked something and using the goto operator in this routine is necessary, I would be grateful to you if you could explain why it is necessary.

Thanks.
