How about conforming to existing kernel style by inverting the ret tests
and using goto here:

	ret = cr_write_hdr(ctx);
	if (ret)
		goto out;
	ret = cr_write_task(ctx, current);
	if (ret)
		goto out;
	ret = cr_write_tail(ctx);
	if (ret)
		goto out;
	ret = ctx->crid;
out:
	return ret;

That means that if we aren't always assigning to ret we won't always
need to (re)test it. Granted the compiler output is probably the same,
but I think this is much more readable by reviewers. It may also be
easier to maintain since you won't have to test ret before adding new
code here.
