The problem is that it's a hit all case and that's usually seen as bad
coding style.
In other words when one branch by accident forgets to set the fw_size we
wouldn't get a warning any more and just use zero.
Please rather add setting the fw_size to zero to the default branch and
maybe even add a warning when that happens.
Regards,
Christian.
