Below you put long line, here it seems wrapped by 80, why so inconsistent?
Please, choose one style and use it everywhere (inside the same file).

Used only once. Just drop the label and move the related code under the branch.

Invert the conditional, it will be slightly easier to parse.

Have you run `pahole`? No issues / room to improve this layout?

Ditto.
