[PATCH] mm: remove __GFP_NOFAIL is deprecated comment

[Michal Hocko]

647757197cd3 ("mm: clarify __GFP_NOFAIL deprecation status") was
incomplete and didn't remove the comment about __GFP_NOFAIL being
deprecated in buffered_rmqueue. Let's get rid of this leftover
but keep the WARN_ON_ONCE for order > 1 because we should really
discourage from using __GFP_NOFAIL with higher order allocations
because those are just too subtle.
