[PATCH] shmem_populate: avoid an useless check, and some comments
Either shmem_getpage returns a failure, or it found a page, or it was told it couldn't do any I/O. So it's useless to check nonblock in the else branch. We could add a BUG() there but I preferred to comment the offending function. This was taken out from one Ingo Molnar's old patch I'm resurrecting.
