Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Sanitise Cavium switch cases in TLB handler
 synthesizers

It makes no sense to fall through to `break'.  Therefore reorder the 
switch statements so as to have the Cavium cases first, followed by the 
default case, which improves readability and pacifies code analysis 
tools.  No change in semantics, assembly produced is exactly the same.
