[PATCH] posix-acl: avoid -Wempty-body warning

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Mar 22 2021 - 07:39:11 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

The fallthrough comment for an ignored cmpxchg() return value
produces a harmless warning with 'make W=1':

fs/posix_acl.c: In function 'get_acl':
fs/posix_acl.c:127:36: error: suggest braces around empty body in an 'if' statement [-Werror=empty-body]
127 | /* fall through */ ;
| ^

Rewrite it as gcc suggests as a step towards a clean W=1 build.
On most architectures, we could just drop the if() entirely, but
in some cases this causes a different warning.
