This is OK from an ARM perspective.  I'm not sure if you need a general
maintainer to approve it though, since it's to a generic file.

One stylistic comment: the gnu coding standards say that there should be
blank lines after break/return in a switch statement (except perhaps in
trivial switch tables).  And similarly at the end of for loops or
if-...-else sequences.
