In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, fix a
warning by explicitly adding a fallthrough; statement.

Notice that this seems to be a Duff device for performance[1]. So,
although the code looks a bit _funny_, I didn't want to refactor
or modify it beyond merely adding a fallthrough marking, which
might be the least disruptive way to fix this issue.

JFYI: We had thousands of these sorts of warnings and now we are down
      to just 7 in linux-next(20210630). This is one of those last
      remaining warnings. :)

If you read the surrounding calling code, it appears it's
not performant.

 * @start has to be the _base_ element start, since the
 * linked list entries's offset is from this pointer.
 * Some linked list entries use only the first id, in which case
 * you can pass 0xFF for the second.

And this is still horrible code to read.

I think the below is rather more sensible and it doesn't change
the defconfig with aic94xx object size.

$ size drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_sds.o*
