[PATCH] kexec: Remove obsolete flag 'in_crash_kexec'

From: Minfei Huang <mnfhuang at gmail.com>

Previously, UV NMI used 'in_crash_kexec' flag to be sure that we are in
kdump kernel or not in commit 5edd19af18a36a4e22c570b1b969179e0ca1fe4c
("x86, UV: Make kdump avoid stack dumps"). But this flags is removed in
commit 9c48f1c629ecfa114850c03f875c6691003214de ("x86, nmi: Wire up NMI
handlers to new routines").

Since it isn't used any more, remove it.
