3.5.7.3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton at samba.org>

commit 11ee7e99f35ecb15f59b21da6a82d96d2cd3fcc8 upstream.

If we build a kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=n,
the kernel fails when we run at a non zero offset. It turns out
we were incorrectly wrapping some of the relocatable kernel code
with CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP.
