In commit 967ac8af4475 ("ext4: fix potential integer overflow in alloc_flex_gd()"), an overflow check is added to alloc_flex_gd() to prevent the allocated memory from being smaller than expected due to the overflow. However, after kmalloc() is replaced with kmalloc_array() in commit 6da2ec56059c ("treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()"), the kmalloc_array() function has an overflow check, so the above problem will not occur. Therefore, the extra check is removed.
