[PATCHv3 02/16] staging: usbip: Add kernel support for client ACLs

The main thing is that there is an IS_ERR vs NULL check.  The rest is
just style nits.

Can this even happen?  If not, don't check for impossible conditions it
is sloppy.

Put parenthesis around multi-line indents.  But in this case just delete
the obvious comment.

Delete obvious comment.

kstrdup() returns a NULL on error not an error pointer.  Configure vim
to use cscope and run make cscope.

Don't initialize things if you don't use the value.  (It stops GCC from
warning about uninitialized variables properly).

I wasn't able to figure out what the "ip" part of "err_ip" meant...

Really these are all poor label names.  They are based on the goto
location instead of the label location.

This isn't really needed because we allocated sdev with kzalloc().
