Subject: [PATCH v2] Revert "kbuild: Do not enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for
 clang for now"

This reverts commit e2079e93f562c7f7a030eb7642017ee5eabaaa10.

This has been fixed up over time thanks to the addition of "fallthrough"
pseudo-keyword in
commit 294f69e662d1 ("compiler_attributes.h: Add 'fallthrough' pseudo
keyword for switch/case use")

---
Changes V1 -> V2:
* We actually want a revert, not a partial revert. v1 removed
  -Wimplicit-fallthrough outright, which we don't want. We still need
  cc-option for GCC < 7.
