Oh, yes. I see I omitted the default from the example - but this was not
what I tried to highlight ;) With a bit more thought I would've added:

default:
ret = -EINVAL;
break;

As you probably guess, what I was after is that for a simple (not deeply
nested) cases like this, I would rather use a variable for return value
and a single point of exit at the end of the function - instead of
having returns in the switch-case. That'd suit better _my_ taste.

Yours,
