The logic in vfio_ccw_sch_shutdown() always assumed that the input subchannel would point to a vfio_ccw_private struct, without checking that one exists. The blamed commit put in a check for this scenario, to prevent the possibility of a missing private. The trouble is that check was put alongside a WARN_ON(), presuming that such a scenario would be a cause for concern. But this can be triggered by binding a subchannel to vfio-ccw, and rebooting the system before starting the mdev (via "mdevctl start" or similar) or after stopping it. In those cases, shutdown doesn't need to worry because either the private was never allocated, or it was cleaned up by vfio_ccw_mdev_remove(). Remove the WARN_ON() piece of this check, since there are plausible scenarios where private would be NULL in this path.
