mm: remove superfluous __ClearPageActive()
To activate a page, mark_page_accessed() always holds a reference on it. It either gets a new reference when adding a page to lru_pvecs.activate_page or reuses an existing one it previously got when it added a page to lru_pvecs.lru_add. So it doesn't call SetPageActive() on a page that doesn't have any reference left. Therefore, the race is impossible these days (I didn't brother to dig into its history). For other paths, namely reclaim and migration, a reference count is always held while calling SetPageActive() on a page. SetPageSlabPfmemalloc() also uses SetPageActive(), but it's irrelevant to LRU pages.
