Qu Wenruo 7361b4ae03 btrfs: remove the dead comment in writepage_delalloc()
When btrfs_run_delalloc_range() failed, we will error out.

But there is a strange comment mentioning that
btrfs_run_delalloc_range() could have returned value >0 to indicate the
IO has already started.

Commit 40f765805f ("Btrfs: split up __extent_writepage to lower stack
usage") introduced the comment, but unfortunately at that time, we were
already using @page_started to indicate that case, and still return 0.

Furthermore, even if that comment was right (which is not), we would
return -EIO if the IO had already started.

By all means the comment is incorrect, just remove the comment along
with the dead check.

Just to be extra safe, add an ASSERT() in btrfs_run_delalloc_range() to
make sure we either return 0 or error, no positive return value.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
