As far as I understand, switch in affs_lookup() only updates inode number when
it's a link so we can simply add default:break to silence gcc warning or replace
by if().

affs_iget() switch on the other hand applies to any type of file.
Maybe we could add default: BUG() to avoid working on bad inode ?
