Kernel style is to have curly braces on all branches if any branch has 'em. Or,
omit the else since the taken branch always returns. I think I prefer the latter?

As with the existing code, I'd let this poke out. Alternatively, this could be
written as:
flush_needed = !can_yield ||
!tdp_mmu_iter_flush_cond_resched(kvm, &iter);
