It's a bit inconsistent though since put_compat_sigset() has the
comments in separate lines, as of commit 89976005536c
("include/linux/compat.h: mark expected switch fall-throughs").

I don't care either way, but it might be better to do it the same way
for both.

We could also consider just getting rid of put_compat_sigset() and
get_compat_sigset() but replacing them with a combined
put_sigset()/get_sigset() that does the right thing for both native
and compat tasks. This lets us kill a couple of compat system
calls that only differ in their sigset_t argument. On little-endian
systems (which are the vast majority of the installed base), there
is no difference anyway there is no overhead anyway since
native and compat sigset_t are identical.
