Actually, no. My first impression was that due to the long time this code has been there,
this might be a missing-break-in-switch false positive. But, due to your comments and a
double check at the code, it may well be that this is an actual bug and that a return
statement should be added after calling write_cmd_reg. Similar to the cases above.

I can send a patch to fix this, but it would be great if someone could help me to verify
this first. :)

Thanks for the feedback!
