mm, swap: Remove WARN_ON_ONCE() in free_swap_slot()

Before commit 452b94b8c8c7 ("mm/swap: don't BUG_ON() due to
uninitialized swap slot cache"), the following bug is reported,

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at mm/swap_slots.c:270!
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
  CPU: 5 PID: 1745 Comm: (sd-pam) Not tainted 4.11.0-rc1-00243-g24c534bb161b #1

This is raised by the BUG_ON(!swap_slot_cache_initialized) in
free_swap_slot().  This is incorrect, because even if the swap slots
cache fails to be initialized, the swap should operate properly without
the swap slots cache.  And the use_swap_slot_cache check later in the
function will protect the uninitialized swap slots cache case.

In commit 452b94b8c8c7, the BUG_ON() is replaced by WARN_ON_ONCE().  In
the patch, the WARN_ON_ONCE() is removed too.
