[PATCH 2/2] staging: speakup: else is not useful after a return

Correct a checkpatch.pl warning regarding
WARNING: else is not generally useful after a break or return
drivers/staging/speakup/keyhelp.c:185:

Changing the order of the if blocks, but not the logic, to avoid this
warning. The block after else will run if the blocks KT_CUR or KT_LATIN
set cur_item instead of returning.
