[PATCH 2/6] kexec: delete a useless check in crash_shrink_memory()

The check '(crashk_res.parent != NULL)' is added by
commit e05bd3367bd3 ("kexec: fix Oops in crash_shrink_memory()"), but it's
stale now. Because if 'crashk_res' is not reserved, it will be zero in
size and will be intercepted by the above 'if (new_size >= old_size)'.
Ago:
if (new_size >= end - start + 1)
Now:
old_size = (end == 0) ? 0 : end - start + 1;
if (new_size >= old_size)
