That's fine.  I can drop it, especially now that comments explain that
this is only for ACTIVE_ONLY.  Personally I like having extra
assertion failures like this that indicate a serious internal logic
error in the code, but I won't push strongly for it.

Sure.  My preference would have been to change it to a WARN_ON() too
(because it signifies an internal error within the RPMH driver, not an
external error that a client of RPMH could trigger), but I can just
drop it entirely.
