[PATCH 12/17] partition: remove redundant read_mapping_page error checks

[Nate Diller <nate.diller@gmail.com>]

Remove unneeded PageError checking in read_dev_sector(), and clean up the
code a bit.

Can anyone point out why it's OK to use page_address() here on a page which
has not been kmapped?  If it's not OK, then a good number of callers need to
be fixed.
