Subject: [11/11] mm/backing-dev.c: remove recently-added WARN_ON()

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

commit 69fc208be5b7eb18d22d1eca185b201400fd5ffc upstream.

On second thoughts, this is just going to disturb people while telling us
things which we already knew.
