[PATCH 4/6] mm/page_alloc: Remove unnecessary page == NULL check in rmqueue

[Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net>]

The VM_BUG_ON check for a valid page can be avoided with a simple
change in the flow. The ZONE_BOOSTED_WATERMARK is unlikely in general
and even more unlikely if the page allocation failed so mark the
branch unlikely.
