Actually, most of the_do_ handle empty blocks. In particular, the normal FOR_EACH_PTR() case should handle it just fine. The exception is, I think: - first_ptr_list/last_ptr_list - DO_PREPARE/DO_RESET which just don't walk the pointer block list, they just end up blindly doing PTR_ENTRY(list, 0); for the first entry, or list = list->prev; PTR_ENTRY(list, list->nr-1); for the last one. I suspect they should be fairly easy to update to just walk the list until they hit a non-empty case (like DO_NEXT() already does, for example).
