KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 572438f9b5 mm: fix is_mem_section_removable() page_order BUG_ON check 
page_order() is called by memory hotplug's user interface to check the
section is removable or not.  (is_mem_section_removable())

It calls page_order() withoug holding zone->lock.
So, even if the caller does

	if (PageBuddy(page))
		ret = page_order(page) ...
The caller may hit BUG_ON().

For fixing this, there are 2 choices.
  1. add zone->lock.
  2. remove BUG_ON().

is_mem_section_removable() is used for some "advice" and doesn't need to
be 100% accurate.  This is_removable() can be called via user program..
We don't want to take this important lock for long by user's request.  So,
this patch removes BUG_ON().
