This patch has been inspired by the Linux kernel patch
294f69e662d1 compiler_attributes.h: Add 'fallthrough' pseudo keyword for switch/case use
written by Joe Perches <joe AT perches DOT com> based on an idea from
Dan Carpenter <dan DOT carpenter AT oracle DOT com>. The following text
is from the original log message:
Reserve the pseudo keyword 'fallthrough' for the ability to convert the
various case block /* fallthrough */ style comments to appear to be an
actual reserved word with the same gcc case block missing fallthrough
warning capability.
All switch/case blocks now should end in one of:
break;
fallthrough;
goto <label>;
return [expression];
continue;
In C mode, GCC supports the __fallthrough__ attribute since 7.1,
the same time the warning and the comment parsing were introduced.
Cygwin-only: add an explicit -Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 to the build
flags.
This option has been disabled long ago and nobody missed it.
Removing drops a bit of unneeded code

Revamp device parsing code. Introducing support for more partitions
into the shilka-generated parser has the unfortunate side-effect of
raising the size of the DLL by almost 2 Megs. Therefore we split out
the handling for /dev/sdXY devices into a tiny bit of hand-written
code.
While at it, remove some unused cruft from devices.* and generally
clean up the device class to provide access methods instead of direct
access to members.
