    powerpc: Remove unnecessary condition when sanity-checking WIMG bits
    
    It is okay for both _PAGE_GUARDED and _PAGE_COHERENT (G and M) to be set
    in the same pte.  In fact, even if that were not the case, there doesn't
    seem to be any place where G is set without also setting I (_PAGE_NO_CACHE),
    so the test for I is sufficient as a condition to clear _PAGE_COHERENT
    when filling the hash table.
