But most of your "move the error fixups to the tail, so the
normal code path is easier to follow" bit do still hold and
can be used. How about this:

int pstore_mkfile(char *name, char *data, size_t size, struct timespec time,
void *private)
{
struct dentry *root = pstore_sb->s_root;
struct dentry *dentry;
struct inode *inode;
int rc;

rc = -ENOMEM;
inode = pstore_get_inode(pstore_sb, root->d_inode, S_IFREG | 0444, 0);
if (!inode)
goto fail;
inode->i_private = private;

mutex_lock(&root->d_inode->i_mutex);

rc = -ENOSPC;
dentry = d_alloc_name(root, name);
if (IS_ERR(dentry))
goto fail_alloc;
d_add(dentry, inode);

mutex_unlock(&root->d_inode->i_mutex);

if (!pstore_writefile(inode, dentry, data, size))
goto fail_write;

if (time.tv_sec)
inode->i_mtime = inode->i_ctime = time;

return 0;

fail_write:
inode->i_nlink--;
mutex_lock(&root->d_inode->i_mutex);
d_delete(dentry);
dput(dentry);
mutex_unlock(&root->d_inode->i_mutex);
goto fail;

fail_alloc:
mutex_unlock(&root->d_inode->i_mutex);
iput(inode);

fail:
return rc;
}
