I'm fairly sure this one is warning supression rather than a fix as
that type u8 being used in the switch is storing an enum which is
set only by kernel code and all values of the enum are covered.
However, that's not locally visible so to me the addition looks good, I'd
just be tempted to drop the fixes tag as backporting this looks like noise
to me.

Yes, this isn't really a bug because the only values available are those
from the enum, but I see how this is not immediately obvious at first.
If Tom has no objections, I'll pick this up and drop the fixes tag so
that we have it along with the other counter changes for the 5.18 merge.
