+GCC7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough to warn when a switch case falls through,
+however this causes warnings (which are promoted to errors) with the elfutils
+patches from Debian for mips and parisc, which use fallthrough's by design.
+
+Explicitly mark the intentional fallthrough switch cases with a comment to
+disable the warnings where the fallthrough behaviour is desired.

+Upstream-Status: Pending [debian]
