buffer_head: remove redundant test from wait_on_buffer

The comment suggests that when b_count equals zero it is calling
__wait_no_buffer to trigger some debug, but as there is no debug in
__wait_on_buffer the whole thing is redundant.

AFAICT from the git log this has been the case for at least 5 years, so
it seems safe just to remove this.
