[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v10 04/13] qapi: Drop pointless gotos in generated code

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

There's no point in emitting a goto if the very next thing
emitted will be the label.  A bit of cleverness in gen_visit_fields()
will let us choose when to omit a final error check (basically,
swap the order of emitted text within the loop, with the error
check omitted on the first pass, then checking whether to emit a
final check after the loop); and in turn omit unused labels.

The change to generated code is a bit easier because we split out
the reindentation of the remaining gotos in the previous patch.
For example, in visit_type_ChardevReturn_fields():

|     if (visit_optional(v, "pty", &obj->has_pty)) {
|         visit_type_str(v, "pty", &obj->pty, &err);
|     }
|-    if (err) {
|-        goto out;
|-    }
|-
|-out:
|     error_propagate(errp, err);
