ceph_msg_data_iter_next() gets a page reference from iov_iter_get_pages2() only to immediately drop it, asserting that the page is pinned some other way. The assertion is the last caller of PageWriteback() in the tree, blocking removal of the PG_writeback page flag accessors. Remove the assertion, as it is a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM-only check of an assumption the FIXME comment already documents. Converting to iov_iter_extract_pages() instead was considered, but the messenger never releases what it extracts, so it would still rely entirely on the caller holding the pages. That would be just as much of an abuse of the API, so leave it as-is for now.
