[IA64] kexec: remove unnecessary #ifdef CONFIG_XEN.
There is no specific reason to reduce memory and stack registers
for kexec. So remove those #ifdef CONFIG_XEN.
The reason for this was that I wanted to make the entire
relocate_kernel code fit into a single 16k page because
I was worried that if more than one page was used
it might not be machine contiguous.
As you pointed out offline:
"I understood. The pages is allocated by kimage_alloc_pages() which
calls xen_limit_pages_to_max_mfn() so that pages are guaranteed to
be machine contiguous."
So I am fine with this change.
