mm/page_alloc: remove obsolete gfpflags_normal_context()

Since commit dacb5d8875cc ("tcp: fix page frag corruption on page fault"),
there's no caller of gfpflags_normal_context().  Remove it as this helper
is strictly tied to the sk page frag usage and there won't be other user
in the future.

- * An allocation being allowed to block doesn't mean it owns the %current

- * allocation context is nested inside whatever %current was doing at the

- * context's expectations.
- *
- * %true result from this function indicates that the allocation context
- * can sleep and use anything that's associated with %current.
