Subject: mm/page_alloc: remove obsolete gfpflags_normal_context()
Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2022 15:22:56 +0800
Since commit dacb5d8875cc ("tcp: fix page frag corruption on page fault"),
there's no caller of gfpflags_normal_context(). Remove it as this helper
is strictly tied to the sk page frag usage and there won't be other user
in the future.
