Remove legacy kdump kernel build support
This patch removes legacy kdump kernel build support(i.e compiling a
kdump kernel at a fixed hardcoded address 32MB). With the relocatable
kernel support its now possible to use the regular kernel binary for
capturing the dump also. Relocatable kdump kernel does not require
trampoline code for exception handlers. It removes kdump.h as most of the
macros defined in kdump.h are not used any more. Also the relocatable
kdump kernel allows us to load kdump kernel any where as specified by
crashkernel parameter instead of hardcoded address 32MB.
