No... You've just changed error handling to success handling and added
some new indent levels and made a tangled spaghetti exit path even more
tangled. Spoderman wants to know, "Why u do dis?"
It should look like:
diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c

See? No indenting, no if statements. Just one statement after another.
