Subject: [PATCH v2] net: hyperv: else branch not necessary

As the if completes with a unconditional goto the else branch
is not needed here.

Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <der.herr@...r.at>

v2: added missing subsystem string in subject line - patch unchanged

All paths of execution that did not exit through the if branch will 
go through the else branch so no need for an explicit else here

Patch was compile tested only for x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_X86_VSMP=y
CONFIG_HYPERV=m, CONFIG_HYPERV_NET=m

Patch is against 3.19.0-rc5 -next-20150123
