Subject: [PATCH 5.10 567/593] mm/hugetlb: remove redundant check in preparing and destroying gigantic page

From: Yanfei Xu <yanfei.xu@...driver.com>

[ Upstream commit 5291c09b3edb657f23c1939750c702ba2d74932f ]

Gigantic page is a compound page and its order is more than 1.  Thus it
must be available for hpage_pincount.  Let's remove the redundant check
for gigantic page.
