From: Vishal Verma <[email protected]>
commit 7e5a21dfe5524a85705d3bc7b540c849cc13e9a1 upstream.
A leftover from the 'bandaid' fix that disabled BTT error clearing in rw_bytes resulted in an incorrect check. After we converted these checks over to use the NVDIMM_IO_ATOMIC flag, the ndns->claim check was both redundant, and incorrect. Remove it.
