In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch
cases where we are expecting to fall through.

This patch fixes the following warning:

drivers/video/fbdev/xen-fbfront.c: In function âxenfb_backend_changedâ:
drivers/video/fbdev/xen-fbfront.c:678:6: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
if (dev->state == XenbusStateClosed)
^
drivers/video/fbdev/xen-fbfront.c:681:2: note: here
case XenbusStateClosing:
^~~~

Warning level 3 was used: -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3

Notice that, in this particular case, the code comment is modified
in accordance with what GCC is expecting to find.

This patch is part of the ongoing efforts to enable
-Wimplicit-fallthrough.
