Jiri Kosina a65c88e16f x86/mm: Remove in_nmi() warning from 64-bit implementation of vmalloc_fault()
In-NMI warnings have been added to vmalloc_fault() via:

  ebc8827f75 ("x86: Barf when vmalloc and kmemcheck faults happen in NMI")

back in the time when our NMI entry code could not cope with nested NMIs.

These days, it's perfectly fine to take a fault in NMI context and we
don't have to care about the fact that IRET from the fault handler might
cause NMI nesting.

This warning has already been removed from 32-bit implementation of
vmalloc_fault() in:

  6863ea0cda ("x86/mm: Remove in_nmi() warning from vmalloc_fault()")

but the 64-bit version was omitted.

Remove the bogus warning also from 64-bit implementation of vmalloc_fault().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
