[PATCH 2/3] staging: wilc1000: One function call less in mac_ioctl() after error detection

From: SF Markus Elfring

The kfree() function was called in two cases by the mac_ioctl() function
during error handling even if the passed variable did not contain a pointer
for a valid data item.

Improve this implementation detail by the introduction of another
jump label.
