Remove switch statement from ufs_set_de_type function in fs/ufs/util.h header and replace with simple assignment. For each case, S_IFx >> 12 is equal to DT_x, so in valid cases (mode & S_IFMT) >> 12 should give us the correct file type. This is verified at compile-time with BUILD_BUG_ON macro calls. For invalid cases, upper layer validation catches this anyway, so this improves readability and arguably performance by assigning (mode & S_IFMT) >> 12 directly.
