x86: UV: remove uv_flush_tlb_others() WARN_ON
In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c),
the "WARN_ON(!in_atomic())" fails if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled.
And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that
most UV owners will use.
We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form.
And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT
is not on.
As Ingo commented:
> and we have no proper primitive to test for atomicity. (mainly
> because we dont know about atomicity on a non-preempt kernel)
So we drop the WARN_ON.
