[PATCH] IB/cm: Remove redundant WARN_ON in cm_free_priv_msg

[Li Zhijian]

Sometimes, the blktests triggered this WARN_ON():

In cm_process_send_error(), cm_free_priv_msg() will be called
when (msg != cm_id_priv->msg) is true. And all other calling to
cm_free_priv_msg() cases, msg is always the same as cm_id_priv->msg.

So it's safe to remove this WARN_ON
