[PATCH 13/13] mm: meminit: Remove mminit_verify_page_links

[Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>]

mminit_verify_page_links() is an extremely paranoid check that was introduced
when memory initialisation was being heavily reworked. Profiles indicated
that up to 10% of parallel memory initialisation was spent on checking
this for every page. The cost could be reduced but in practice this check
only found problems very early during the initialisation rewrite and has
found nothing since. This patch removes an expensive unnecessary check.
