Humm, there are two cases in tools/perf/, where it was made (hey, I am
to blame) for really simple stuff like:

    case A: B(); break;

To make it more compact.

But I just checked and this is not that uncommon:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break'  | wc -l
  5035
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find arch -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  1440
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find block -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  7
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find crypto -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  0
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find fs -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  66
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find kernel -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  11
  [acme@zoo linux]$ find mm -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep ';.*break' | wc -l
  3
  [acme@zoo linux]$

But I am not that attached to it, as said, just two cases :)
