rmap: remove obsolete check from __page_check_anon_rmap()
When an anonymous page is inherited from a parent process, the vma->anon_vma can differ from the page anon_vma. This can trip up __page_check_anon_rmap, which is indirectly called from do_swap_page(). Remove that obsolete check to prevent an oops.
