mm: remove bogus warning in copy_huge_pmd()
Sasha Levin reported the following warning being triggered WARNING: CPU: 28 PID: 35287 at mm/huge_memory.c:887 copy_huge_pmd+0x145/ 0x3a0() Call Trace: copy_huge_pmd+0x145/0x3a0 copy_page_range+0x3f2/0x560 dup_mmap+0x2c9/0x3d0 dup_mm+0xad/0x150 copy_process+0xa68/0x12e0 do_fork+0x96/0x270 SyS_clone+0x16/0x20 stub_clone+0x69/0x90 This warning was introduced by "mm: numa: Avoid unnecessary disruption of NUMA hinting during migration" for paranoia reasons but the warning is bogus. I was thinking of parallel races between NUMA hinting faults and forks but this warning would also be triggered by a parallel reclaim splitting a THP during a fork. Remote the bogus warning.
