[ Upstream commit 6988f31d558aa8c744464a7f6d91d34ada48ad12 ]
Replace superfluous VM_BUG_ON() with comment about correct usage.
Technically reverts commit 1d148e218a0d ("mm: add VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() to page_mapcount()"), but context lines have changed.
Function isolate_migratepages_block() runs some checks out of lru_lock when choose pages for migration. After checking PageLRU() it checks extra page references by comparing page_count() and page_mapcount(). Between these two checks page could be removed from lru, freed and taken by slab.
As a result this race triggers VM_BUG_ON(PageSlab()) in page_mapcount(). Race window is tiny. For certain workload this happens around once a year.

The code in isolate_migratepages_block() was added in commit 119d6d59dcc0 ("mm, compaction: avoid isolating pinned pages") before adding VM_BUG_ON into page_mapcount().
This race has been predicted in 2015 by Vlastimil Babka (see link below).
