These fall throughs are not needed by the compiler and are more distracting. The fall through comment is needed when there is a block of code in a switch statement and then falls through to the next case. It is not needed if it's just a case and automatically falls through on the next line.
By reverting this patch we also line up the file with the upstream version.
