Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/8] rcu: Remove redundant debug_locks check in rcu_read_lock_sched_held()

From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@...lfernandes.org>

The debug_locks flag can never be true at the end of
rcu_read_lock_sched_held() because it is already checked by the earlier
call todebug_lockdep_rcu_enabled().   This commit therefore removes this
redundant check.
