Even shorter, but puts the default in a non-standard place:

+       switch (fmt & SND_SOC_DAIFMT_MASTER_MASK) {
+       case SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFM: /* Passing Case */
+               break;
+       default:			/* So much Fail we should say something */
+               printk(KERN_INFO "Unknown SND_SOC_DAIFMT kind\n");
+       case SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBS_CFS: /* Failing Cases */
+       case SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFS:
+       case SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBS_CFM:
+               ret = -EINVAL;
+               break;
+	}

(I see a checkpatch update to check where default: is, coming in 3.. 2.. 1.. :)
