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. It is expected that for *nix compatibility
reasons, the relation between S_IFx and DT_x will not change. For
cases where the mode is invalid, upper layer validation catches this
anyway, so this improves readability and arguably performance by
assigning (mode & S_IFMT) >> 12 directly without any jump table
or conditional logic.
