Linus Torvalds e9338abf0e fallthrough fixes for Clang for 5.14-rc2
Hi Linus,
 
 Please, pull the following patches that fix many fall-through
 warnings when building with Clang and -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
 
 This pull-request also contains the patch for Makefile that enables
 -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, globally.
 
 It's also important to notice that since we have adopted the use of
 the pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough; we also want to avoid having
 more /* fall through */ comments being introduced. Notice that contrary
 to GCC, Clang doesn't recognize any comments as implicit fall-through
 markings when the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option is enabled. So, in
 order to avoid having more comments being introduced, we have to use
 the option -Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 for GCC, which similar to Clang,
 will cause a warning in case a code comment is intended to be used
 as a fall-through marking. The patch for Makefile also enforces this.
 
 We had almost 4,000 of these issues for Clang in the beginning,
 and there might be a couple more out there when building some
 architectures with certain configurations. However, with the
 recent fixes I think we are in good shape and it is now possible
 to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang. :)
 
 Thanks!

README

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.
