I'd suggest to follow what kernel does, IIRC there's some whole-tree
cleanup of all the fall through statements with a unified conversion to
the right(tm) annotation.

That would be good to add by default, but I'm a bit worried about the
differences between compilers and that we'd have to switch the
annotations again once the attribute support lands. Maybe that's not a
big deal.
