Thanks for the patch.  It looks good, but it raises
another question I'd like discussion on.

It seems that Johan likes default (or final) cases in
switch statements without a "break" statement.  Viresh
and Bryan appear to be fond of this too.

It's pedantic, but I don't like that.  Am I wrong?
   --> Johan/Viresh/Bryan would you please comment?

If they aren't convincing (or don't care) I think break
statements should also be added here:
- In gb_interface_read_and_clear_init_status() for the
   default case
- In gb_interface_activate() for the default case.
- In gb_svc_process_deferred_request() for the default
   case

But let's wait to see what Johan (et al) says.  If you
don't want to do that, say so and I'll do it later.

I looked at the code in drivers/staging/greybus/ and saw
no need to add a "fallthrough" anywhere, but:
- In fw_mgmt_backend_fw_version_operation() Viresh
   seems to have skipped the break in the fault statement
- In gb_uart_request_handler() Bryan did this too.

Depending on discussion, these could be fixed in a
separate patch as well.

These cases aren't found by "checkpatch.pl" because it only
looks at case "blocks" that are followed by another case.
So the last case isn't checked.
