[PATCH 1/4] powerpc/mm: Clean up error handling for htab_remove_mapping

Currently, the only error that htab_remove_mapping() can report is -EINVAL,
if removal of bolted HPTEs isn't implemeted for this platform. We make
a few clean ups to the handling of this:
* EINVAL isn't really the right code - there's nothing wrong with the
function's arguments - use ENODEV instead
* We were also printing a warning message, but that's a decision better
left up to the callers, so remove it
* One caller is vmemmap_remove_mapping(), which will just BUG_ON() on
error, making the warning message redundant, so no change is needed
there.
* The other caller is remove_section_mapping(). This is called in the
memory hot remove path at a point after vmemmap_remove_mapping() so
if hpte_removebolted isn't implemented, we'd expect to have already
BUG()ed anyway. Put a WARN_ON() here, in lieu of a printk() since this
really shouldn't be happening.
