x86/boot: Drop redundant code setting the root device

The root device defaults to 0,0 and is no longer configurable at build
time [0], so there is no need for the build tool to ever write to this
field.

[0] 079f85e6 ("x86, build: Do not set the root_dev field in bzImage")

This change has no impact on the resulting bzImage binary.
