xfs: Stop using __maybe_unused in xfs_alloc.c



In both xfs_alloc_cur_finish() and xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_exact(), local
variable @afg is tagged as __maybe_unused. Otherwise an unused variable
warning would be generated for when building with W=1 and CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG
unset. In both cases, the variable is unused as it is only referenced in
an ASSERT() call, which is compiled out (in this config).

It is generally a poor programming style to use __maybe_unused for
variables.

The ASSERT() call is to verify that agbno of the end of the extent is
within bounds for both functions. @afg is used as an intermediate variable
to find the AG length.

However xfs_verify_agbext() already exists to verify a valid extent range.
The arguments for calling xfs_verify_agbext() are already available, so use
that instead.

An advantage of using xfs_verify_agbext() is that it verifies that both the
start and the end of the extent are within the bounds of the AG and
catches overflows.
