The build fails with following message when -Werror
and -Werror=return-type are enabled.
In function ‘GetCacheTypeString’:
error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]
Simple fix is to return explicitly communicate to
the compiler that certain block is not reachable.
Visual C++ reported a number of warnings:

Most of them, with the exception of _open() -> _sopen_s() are about
questionable implicit casts. Fixing the types and adding explicit casts
to explicitly mark the intention (and silence the warnings in the process)
Some PowerPC machines can operate in a mode that appears different
to a process than the actual hardware. AT_PLATFORM indicates the
supported instruction set and AT_BASE_PLATFORM indicates the
actual microarchitecture of the hardware.
