This applies to SoC only, so I believe it's fine. We don't have SoCs
based on BCMA and SSB at the same time.

It is indeed more than unlikely for a chip to have two silicon interconnects, which is what SSB and BCMA are. However, it does look suspicious from a code reading perspective. So I general I stick to the rule that each case must have a break and fall-thru are clearly commented.

You can find devices with multiple buses, but additional ones are
connected via PCIE or USB interface (or some other I don't know
about).
