kexec: clean up arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig
[ Upstream commit 689a71493bd2f31c024f8c0395f85a1fd4b2138e ]
Before commit 105e10e2cf1c ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
functions"), there was already no arch-specific implementation
of arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig. With weak attribute dropped by that
commit, arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig is completely useless. So clean it
up.
Note later patches are dependent on this patch so it should be backported
to the stable tree as well.
