[PATCH] sh: fix kexec by removing check for old kexec-tools

[Magnus Damm]

From: Magnus Damm <damm@opensource.se>

This unbreaks kexec support. Without this fix all
cases of kexec fails since __pa() does not behave
like PHYSADDR(). The downside is that we also kill
the code blocking users running old kexec-tools.

Applied for 2.6.33, thanks.
