This is just clean up of unused data that tries to bar animal archetypes due to the cavalier's mount not having the share spells ability. Particularly the Charger archetype. After review of the actual Pathfinder Archetype rules, an archetype should be blocked if the same ability in the base class has been replaced by another archetype. Since Cavalier class removes the share spells ability, and an archetype has not replaced or modified it, then the charger (and consequently other archetypes as well that normally would replace share spells) will be allowed. However, two archetypes that replace the otherwise non-existent share spells ability would not be able to be taken at the same time.
... This has not officially been errata'd or FAQ'd by Paizo to clarify the meaning, but PF fix Cavalier's Mount should not be barred from Animal Archetypes that replace Share Spells. But by the description of Charger archetype in Player Companion Animal Archive it is clear that it was always intended to be available to cavaliers.
