Building with gcc -W revealed this warning:
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c: In function `do_general_protection':
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:506: warning: empty body in an if-statement

upon inspecting the code I see what looks like a mistakenly placed ";"

        if (!fixup_exception(regs)) {
                if (notify_die(DIE_GPF, "general protection fault", regs,
                                error_code, 13, SIGSEGV) == NOTIFY_STOP);
                        return;
                die("general protection fault", regs, error_code);
        }

That ";" after the second if should go away so the return; before die()
is not unconditional.
