Subject: [PATCH] cachefiles: Drop superfluous readpages aops NULL check
Git-commit: db58465f1121086b524be80be39d1fedbe5387f3
Patch-mainline: v5.11-rc5
References: git-fixes

After the recent actions to convert readpages aops to readahead, the
NULL checks of readpages aops in cachefiles_read_or_alloc_page() may
hit falsely.  More badly, it's an ASSERT() call, and this panics.

Drop the superfluous NULL checks for fixing this regression.

[dh: Note that cachefiles never actually used readpages, so this check was never actually necessary]
