[Patch] kexec: remove duplicated backup_src_start field from struct crash_elf_info

Vivek pointed out that we have duplicated ->backup_src_start
in struct crash_elf_info and struct kexec_info.

This patch removes the ->backup_src_start and ->backup_src_end
from struct crash_elf_info.

I tested it on both i686 and ppc64, and used a test case from
Dave Anderson to confirm the backup region is correct on i686.
