The `watchpoint_idx` argument to kcsan_report() isn't meaningful for races which were not detected by a watchpoint, and it would be clearer if callers passed the other_info directly so that a NULL value can be passed in this case. Given that callers manipulate their watchpoints before passing the index into kcsan_report_*(), and given we index the `other_infos` array using this before we sanity-check it, the subsequent sanity check isn't all that useful. Let's remove the `watchpoint_idx` sanity check, and move the job of finding the `other_info` out of kcsan_report(). Other than the removal of the check, there should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

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.
