Actually - where do you see a regression here? These cases of fall-through
have been entirely un-annotated so far, so I'm instead surprised that
apparently there were no warnings so far. Or maybe they had been marked
false-positive in some database, and some unrelated code change made
Coverity think this was new / changed code.
