Goto's are used in several places to help gcc emit better code. Try grepping for Dijkstra :-) It avoids artificial 'while' constructs with funny booleans.
I hope you didn't do 'grep goto *'. This will give you nothing. Try the following: find /usr/src/linux -name '*.[chSs]' | xargs grep goto if you really want to search the entire source code.
