Yes, obviously. Fixed now.

I just noticed this should have the same change that I made for the
generic version, changed it now to

+       if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CPU_HAS_ADDRESS_SPACES) ||
+           !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MMU))

This is gone again after the cleanup patch, when the generic version
is used instead.

No, using a local variable avoids this warning.
