If a region has been mapped sparsely (such as on page faults), the user
has to keep track of what was mapped or not in order to avoid warnings
when unmapping the entire region. Remove the WARN on empty PTEs to allow
unmapping sparsely mapped regions.

This is needed for large (up to 1GB AIUI) scratch buffers on panfrost
which are mapped on demand on GPU page faults and can be unmapped on
memory pressure. Alternatively, I'd need to have a bitmap of mapped
pages to track what is mapped or not. Dropping the WARN seems like a
much simpler solution.
This will need to go thru the DRM tree once I've gotten the panfrost
side finished, but wanted some early feedback.
