In this particular example, does the goto solution has any significant
advantage over using if-else as follows?:

int fun(int a)
{
        int result = 0;
        char *buffer = kmalloc(SIZE);

        if (buffer == NULL)
                return -ENOMEM;

        if (condition1) {
                while (loop1) {
                        ...
                }
                result = 1;
        } else {
                ...
        }

        kfree(buffer);
        return result;
}
