## \[PATCH RFC\] input/elants\_i2c: Detect enum overflow

If an enum value were to get added without updating this switch
statement, the unreachable() annotation would trigger undefined
behavior, causing execution to fall through the end of the function,
into the next one.

Make the error handling more robust for an unexpected enum value, by
doing BUG() instead of unreachable().

Fixes the following objtool warning:

  drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.o: warning: objtool: elants_i2c_initialize() falls through to next function elants_i2c_resume()
