Subject: [PATCH] Use 'do {} while (0)' for empty flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault()
 macro

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 ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body]

due to the fact that 'flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault' is a macro that
can sometimes be defined to nothing.
