mm/nommu.c: drop unlikely inside BUG_ON()
(1) For !CONFIG_BUG cases, the bug call is a no-op, so we couldn't
care less and the change is ok.
(2) ppc and mips, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch
predictions as it seems to be pointless[1] and thus callers should not
be trying to push an optimization in the first place.
(3) For CONFIG_BUG and !HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON cases, BUG_ON() contains an
unlikely compiler flag already.
Hence, we can drop unlikely behind BUG_ON().
