This seems an odd coding style choice; why the extra unneeded
indentation? That is, what's wrong with:

if (list_empty()) {
guard(spinlock_irqsave)(&iommu_mms_lock);
list_del();
if (list_empty()
static_branch_disable();
}

Well, for one, you can't do static_branch_{en,dis}able() from atomic
context...

Was this ever tested?

I conducted unit tests for vmalloc()/vfree() scenarios, and Yi performed
fuzzing tests. We have not observed any warning messages. Perhaps
static_branch_disable() is not triggered in the test cases?
