can_split_huge_page is introduced via commit b8f593cd0896 ("mm, THP, swap:
check whether THP can be split firstly") to avoid deleting the THP from
the swap cache and freeing the swap cluster when the THP cannot be split.
But since commit bd4c82c22c36 ("mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after
swapped out"), splitting THP is delayed until THP is swapped out. There's
no need to delete the THP from the swap cache and free the swap cluster
anymore. Thus we can remove this unneeded can_split_huge_page check now to
simplify the code logic.
