Couldn't this just be done as a do while?  It would probably be easier
to read and there wouldn't be any need for the another_round label anymore.

Or an infinite loop with a break at the bottom, as in:
        for (;;) {
                switch (...) {
                case again:
                        continue;
                default:
                        break;
                }
                break;
        }

That is even more complicated.  What I was thinking was
        do {
                ret = __netif_receive_skb_ingress(skb, pfmemalloc,
                                                  orig_dev);
        } while (ret == __NET_RX_ANOTHER_ROUND);

Either that or the switch could just be replaced with a if statement since the only case that really goes anywhere is __NET_RX_ANOTHER_ROUND and everything else just exits anyway. I had just suggested a do/while since that lets the goto be dropped, but an if would allow for avoiding any unnecessary indentation on the call to __netif_receive_skb_ingress.
