x86: Drop always empty .text..page_aligned section

Commit e44b7b7 ("x86: move suspend wakeup code to C") didn't
care to also eliminate the side effects that the earlier 4c49156
("x86: make arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S use a separate")
had, thus leaving a now pointless, almost page size gap at the
beginning of .text.
