Subject: [PATCH v2 08/15] x86/boot: Drop references to startup_64

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@...nel.org>

The x86 boot image generation tool assign a default value to startup_64
and subsequently parses the actual value from zoffset.h but it never
actually uses the value anywhere. So remove this code.

This change has no impact on the resulting bzImage binary.
