I cannot speak for other static checkers but clang does not complain in 
this instance. cmd_in is the switch value, which is unsigned int; as far 
as I am aware, clang will only complain about a switch not handling all 
values when switching on an enumerated type.

Gustavo, if you are already handling all of the other warnings in -next, 
do you want to take this one too?
