No, there isn't.  The full context looks like this:

        longmode = is_long_mode(vcpu) && cs_l == 1;
        if (!longmode) {
                param = ((u64)kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RDX) << 32) |
                        (kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RAX) & 0xffffffff);
                ingpa = ((u64)kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RBX) << 32) |
                        (kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RCX) & 0xffffffff);
                outgpa = ((u64)kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RDI) << 32) |
                        (kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RSI) & 0xffffffff);
        }
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
        else {
                param = kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RCX);
                ingpa = kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_RDX);
                outgpa = kvm_register_read(vcpu, VCPU_REGS_R8);
        }
#endif

and longmode must be zero if !CONFIG_X86_64:

static inline int is_long_mode(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
        return vcpu->arch.efer & EFER_LMA;
#else
        return 0;
#endif
}

So it's the static checker that cannot understand #ifdef well
enough and ought to be fixed.
