I agree that bad0, bad1, and bad2 are not the best choice for label names...
I don't have any objections to your renaming.

But there's a more serious bug, maybe you can fix that as well while you're
at it? (See below)

Thanks,

The free() depends on pdev->dev.of_node, while the allocation doesn't!!!!
That's another source of memory leaks.
