[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/gt: Avoid redundant pointer validity check

The macro definition of gen6_for_all_pdes() expands to a for loop such
that it breaks when the page table is null. Hence there is no need to
again test validity of the page table entry pointers in the pde list.
This change is identified using itnull.cocci semantic patch.
