[PATCH] net: mpls: Fix GCC 12 warning

[PATCH] net: mpls: Fix GCC 12 warning

[Victor Erminpour]

When building with automatic stack variable initialization, GCC 12
complains about variables defined outside of switch case statements.
Move the variable outside the switch, which silences the warning:

./net/mpls/af_mpls.c:1624:21: error: statement will never be executed [-Werror=switch-unreachable]
  1624 |                 int err;
       |                     ^~~
