__put_user_asm_goto() provides more flexibility to GCC and avoids using
a local variable to tell if the write succeeded or not.
GCC can then avoid implementing a cmp in the fast path.
See the difference for a small function like the PPC64 version of
save_general_regs() in arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
