If one builds the kernel with -Wempty-body one gets this warning: mm/memory.c:3432:46: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ʽifʼ statement [-Wempty-body] due to the fact that 'flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault' is a macro that can sometimes be defined to nothing. I suggest we heed gcc's advice and put a pair of braces on that if.
