This was introduced with v4.18 commit 8c3d20aada70 ("scsi: zfcp: fix
missing REC trigger trace for all objects in ERP_FAILED") but would now
suppress helpful -Wswitch compiler warnings when building with W=1 such as
the following forced example:
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_erp.c: In function 'zfcp_erp_handle_failed':
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_erp.c:126:2: warning: enumeration value 'ZFCP_ERP_ACTION_REOPEN_PORT_FORCED' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
switch (want) {
^~~~~~
But then again, only with W=1 we would notice unhandled enum cases.
Without the default cases and a missed unhandled enum case, the code might
perform unforeseen things we might not want...
As of today, we never run through the removed default case, so removing it
is no functional change. In the future, we never should run through a
default case but introduce the necessary specific case(s) to handle new
functionality.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
