mm: remove node_start_pfn checking in new WARN_ON for now
Borislav Petkov reports that the new warning added in commit
88fdf75d1bb5 ("mm: warn if pg_data_t isn't initialized with zero")
triggers for him, and it is the node_start_pfn field that has already
been initialized once.
The call trace looks like this:
x86_64_start_kernel ->
x86_64_start_reservations ->
start_kernel ->
setup_arch ->
paging_init ->
zone_sizes_init ->
free_area_init_nodes ->
free_area_init_node
and (with the warning replaced by debug output), Borislav sees

so remove the bogus warning for now to avoid annoying people. Minchan
Kim is looking at it.
