Subject: x86, kexec: fix crashdump panic with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP

Tim Starling reported that crashdump will panic with kernel compiled
with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP due to null pointer deference in
machine_kexec_32.c: machine_kexec(), when deferencing
kexec_image. Refering to:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265

This patch fixes the BUG via replacing global variable reference:
kexec_image in machine_kexec() with local variable reference: image,
which is more appropriate, and will not be null.

Same BUG is in machine_kexec_64.c too, so fixed too in the same way.

[ Impact: fix crash on kexec ]
