There is no case after the default from which to fallthrough to. Clang
will error in this case (unhelpfully without context, see link below)
and GCC will with -Wswitch-unreachable.
The previous commit should have just replaced the comment with a break
statement.
If we consider implicit fallthrough to be a design mistake of C, then
all case statements should be terminated with one of the following
statements:
* break
* continue
* return
* __attribute__(__fallthrough__)
* goto (plz no)
* (call of function with __attribute__(__noreturn__))

Changes v2:
* add break rather than no terminating statement as per Joe.
* add Joe's suggested by tag.
* add blurb about acceptable terminal statements.
