There is a plan to build the kernel with -Wimplicit-fallthrough and
this place in the code produced a warning (W=1).

In this particular case change put the fall through comment on a single

This commit remove the following warning:

kernel/capability.c:95:3: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
