you are forgotten the semicolons, instead of this :

if(isset($matches[1]))
                $max = (int) $matches[1];
        switch (strtolower($last))
        {
                case 'g':
                case 'gb':
                        $max *= 1024;
                case 'm':
                case 'mb':
                        $max *= 1024;
                case 'k':
                case 'kb':
                        $max *= 1024;
        }
        else
                $max = 1048576;

try this

if(isset($matches[1])){
                $max = (int) $matches[1];
        switch (strtolower($last))
        {
                case 'g':
                case 'gb':
                        $max *= 1024;
                case 'm':
                case 'mb':
                        $max *= 1024;
                case 'k':
                case 'kb':
                        $max *= 1024;
        }
}
        else
                $max = 1048576;

You are missing brackets around the if statement:

if(isset($matches[1]))
{ # Here
    $max = (int) $matches[1];
    switch (strtolower($last))
    {
            case 'g':
            case 'gb':
                $max *= 1024;
            case 'm':
            case 'mb':
                $max *= 1024;
            case 'k':
            case 'kb':
                $max *= 1024;
    }
} # And here
else
        $max = 1048576;
