Yes, they have the same worth == not super useful... I kept the one higher up as
it is OK because we hold the lock, but removed the second one as checking pflags
without the lock is just plain wrong. Thinking of it, the first WRN_ON() is also
wrong I think because EH could be rescheduled right after wait_eh and before we
take the lock. In that case, the warn on would be a flase positive. I will
remove it as well.
