kbuild: drop include/asm
We no longer use this directory for generated files and all architectures has moved their header files so no symlink tricks are needed either. Drop the symlink and drop the ARCH check. If we really need to check that the SRCARCH has not changed when we build a kernel we can add this check back - but then we will find a more convenient way to store the info.
