[lustre cleanups 5/6] Nuke an unsigned >= 0 assert

[Valdis Kletnieks]

Writing asserts for almost-never-can-happen things can be valuable.
Writing an assert that tests that an "unsigned int" hasn't gone negative
isn't.

And it generates an *ugly* message:

drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:20: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true [-Wtype-limits]
  LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved);

 #  define unlikely(x) (__builtin_constant_p(x) ? !!(x) : __branch_check__(x, 0))

Umm, thank you, GCC.  We'll delete the problem line so ne never see that spew again.
