mm/writeback: minor clean up for highmem_dirtyable_memory

Browse Source 
Since commit a804552b9a ("mm/page-writeback.c: fix
dirty_balance_reserve subtraction from dirtyable memory"), local
variable x can not be negative.  And it can not overflow when it is the
total number of dirtyable highmem pages.  Thus remove the unneeded
comment and overflow check.
