[PATCH] mm: remove PG_Mlocked VM_BUG_ON check
From: Minchan Kim
Date: Mon Apr 10 2017 - 22:41:54 EST
Caller of try_to_munlock doesn't guarantee he pass the page
with clearing PG_mlocked.
Look at __munlock_pagevec which doesn't hold any PG_lock
so anybody can set PG_mlocked under us.
Remove bogus PageMlocked check in try_to_munlock.
