[RFC PATCH 6/7] arch: x86: no MAX_ORDER exceeds SECTION_SIZE check for 32bit vdso.

From: Zi Yan <ziy at nvidia.com>

For x86_64, 32bit vdso is compiled for compatibility reason and 32bit
SECTION_SIZE_BITS value is used during compilation. It causes
compilation time error when MAX_ORDER is increased in the 64bit
environment even if it is OK for 64bit SECTION_SIZE_BITS. Remove the
check during 32bit vdso compilation. It will be checked when other
kernel components are compiled.
