I think removing the check from display-line-numbers.el would make
sense, but IMO we should leave it in linum.el because having Emacs
freeze on startup is worse than having to toggle global-linum-mode when
using emacsclient.

Or if we really want to remove it from linum.el, there is my patch at
https://debbugs.gnu.org/27210#28 which can fix that bug without the
above check.
