mainlining shenanigans

"fallthrough" comments are used in switch case statements to explicitly indicate the code is intended to fall through to the following statement. Different variants of "fallthough" are acceptable, e.g. "fall through", "fallthrough", "Fall-through". The GCC compiler has an optional warning (-Wimplicit-fallthrough[=n]) to warn when such a comment is not present; the default version of which is enabled when compiling the Linux kernel. There have been recent discussions in kernel mailing lists regarding replacing non-standardized "fallthrough" comments with the pseudo-reserved word 'fallthrough' which will be defined as __attribute__ ((fallthrough)) for versions of gcc that support it (i.e. gcc 7 and newer) or as a nop for versions that do not. Replace "fallthrough" comments with fallthrough reserved word.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
