lib: Revert use of fallthrough pseudo-keyword in lib/
The following build error for powerpc64 was reported by Nathan Chancellor: "$ scripts/config --file arch/powerpc/configs/powernv_defconfig -e KERNEL_XZ $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux- distclean powernv_defconfig zImage ... In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/decompress_unxz.c:234, from arch/powerpc/boot/decompress.c:38: arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/xz/xz_dec_stream.c: In function 'dec_main': arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/xz/xz_dec_stream.c:586:4: error: 'fallthrough' undeclared (first use in this function) 586 | fallthrough; | ^~~~~~~~~~~ This will end up affecting distribution configurations such as Debian and OpenSUSE according to my testing. I am not sure what the solution is, the PowerPC wrapper does not set -D__KERNEL__ so I am not sure that compiler_attributes.h can be safely included." In order to avoid these sort of problems, it seems that the best solution is to use /* fall through */ comments instead of the fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro in lib/, for now.
