I didn't even see v2 itself!

Don't use WARN_ON, there is code (or will be) where we use
prepare_shmem_read/write to determine if we can use the shmem paths.

Also i915_gem_obj_prepare_shmem_write() requires the same treatment.

My apologies I had this patch but appear to have accidentally squashed
it whilst rebasing. Thanks!
