When some code has been moved in the commit in Fixes, some "return err;" have correctly been changed in goto <some_where_in_the_error_handling_path> but this one was missed. Should "ops->maxtype > RTNL_MAX_TYPE" happen, then some resources would leak. Go through the error handling path to fix these leaks.
