I think you misread. This goto does not do that; it goes from the else 
side of one if block, into a different if block within the same do/while
pair. I assumed this was okay, because in 
commit:b48732e4a48d80ed4a14812f0bab09560846514e the same type of goto
unlock jump is used. Since that commit was accepted 4 months ago, I
figured the style hadn't changed. 

Would you rather see:
+			unix_state_unlock(sk);
+			break;

Agreed, any v4 post will not include it.
