Ack. That was meant to catch any (unlikely) strange users, but yeah,
it can obviously be triggered by "intentional" strange users, ie
syzbot and friends, so since there seems to be no sign of actual
real-world use, just removing the WARN_ONCE() is the right thing to
do.

I'm assuming I'll get this eventually through the regular media pulls?
