[PATCH] drm/amd/display: Don't check for NULL divisor in fixpt code

[Why]
We check for a NULL divisor but don't act on it.
This check does nothing other than throw a warning.
It does confuse static checkers though:
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2025/4/26/371

[How]
Drop the ASSERTs in both DC and SPL variants.
