From: Li RongQing <roy.qing.li@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: memcontrol: remove BUG_ON in uncharge_list
When calling uncharge_list, if a page is transparent huge we don't need to
BUG_ON about non-transparent huge, since nobody should be able to see the
page at this stage and this page cannot be raced against with a THP split.
This check became unneeded after 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite
uncharge API").
