This is a common pattern in this driver. So i guess Thomas just
cut/pasted the switch statement from _probe(), which also has the
BUG().

Given that _probe() should of thrown a BUG() in this situation, if it
happens here, it means mvchip->soc_variant has been corrupted, and so
bad things are happening. So a BUG() is maybe called for?
