kbuild: mkmakefile: do not check the generated Makefile marker

This hunk was added to avoid accidental overwrite of the top Makefile in case O= points to the top of the source tree. As commit 4f1127e ("kbuild: fix infinite make recursion"), it caused some troubles in the past because Kbuild assumes O= as out-of-tree build, while it actually works in the source tree. Now this works more properly; if O= points to the source directory, it is handled as in-tree build. So, this sanity check is unneeded. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <[email protected]>
