Zijun Hu d1f482108a fs/fs_parse: Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table() ...

Remove validate_constant_table() since:

- It has no caller.

- It has below 3 bugs for good constant table array array[] which must
  end with a empty entry, and take below invocation for explaination:
  validate_constant_table(array, ARRAY_SIZE(array), ...)

  - Always return wrong value due to the last empty entry.
  - Imprecise error message for missorted case.
  - Potential NULL pointer dereference since the last pr_err() may use
    @tbl[i].name NULL pointer to print the last empty entry's name.
