destutil: remove dead code about non-linear updates IIUC, the non-linear updates no longer happen by default since 6b1fc09c699a (update: change default destination to tipmost descendant (issue4673) (BC), 2016-02-02), and it was only if they happened by default that we used to error out, so there is no longer a need to handle this case.
