[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] igb_uio: fix build on Linux 5.3 for implicit fall through

[Ferruh Yigit]

build error:
.../dpdk/build/build/kernel/linux/igb_uio/igb_uio.c:
   In function ‘igbuio_pci_enable_interrupts’:
   .../dpdk/build/build/kernel/linux/igb_uio/igb_uio.c:230:6:
   error: this statement may fall through
   [-Werror=implicit-fallthrough=]
  230 |   if (pci_alloc_irq_vectors(udev->pdev, 1, 1, ....
.../dpdk/build/build/kernel/linux/igb_uio/igb_uio.c:240:2:
   note: here
  240 |  case RTE_INTR_MODE_MSI:
      |  ^~~~

The build error is caused by Linux kernel commit in 5.3 that enables the
"-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3" gcc flag.
Commit a035d552a93b ("Makefile: Globally enable fall-through warning")

To fix the error, either a gcc attribute can be provided [1] or a code
comment with some defined syntax need to be provided [2], since there is
already comments, updated them slightly to match the required syntax to
fix the build error.

[1]
"__attribute__ ((fallthrough));"

[2]
[ \t.!]*([Ee]lse,? |[Ii]ntentional(ly)? )?
fall(s | |-)?thr(ough|u)[ \t.!]*(-[^\n\r]*)?
