As per 
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v6.0/process/coding-style.html#centralized-exiting-of-functions
the label has no indent from the parent block

And for GNU style, I couldn't find an example the style manual, nor in 
GNU hello.
So I except c-ts-mode to have the same behavior as c-mode (even if it's 
wrong
as per GNU indent,).

In short, I expect c-ts-mode to behave the same as c-mode because that's 
what
users often expect (ie, for those who uses GNU indent, their code will 
indent
right regardless of how c-mode or c-ts-mode behave.  But for the users 
who
migrate from c-mode - the anticipated user base of c-ts-mode - expects 
it to
be no different from c-mode)


cheers,
Mohammed Sadiq
