[PATCH] drm/gem: remove obsolete BUG_ON

[David Herrmann]

The shmem subsystem supports relocating pages on swap-in in case it was
loaded into the wrong zone. This was implemented 2 years ago in:

    commit bde05d1ccd512696b09db9dd2e5f33ad19152605

        shmem: replace page if mapping excludes its zone

If a driver requires pages to be in a specific zone, they _must_ set the
correct GFP flags (like __GFP_DMA32) in mapping_gfp_mask(mapping). shmem
will make sure that any page leaving the swap-cache is located in a
compatible zone.
