Unmodified clang does not emit this warning without a patch.

It'd be better to remove CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG everywhere

not portable to multiple systems.

This should be __attribute__((__fallthrough__))

And there is still no agreement about whether this should
be #define fallthrough or #define __fallthrough
