Subject: [PATCH] x86/ptrace: Mark expected switch fall-through

Mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.

Fix the following warning (Building: allnoconfig i386):

arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c:202:6: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
   if (unlikely(value == 0))
      ^
arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c:206:2: note: here
  default:
  ^~~~~~~
