[PATCH v2 2/3] x86: zimage: Sanity-check the kernel version before printing it

[Simon Glass]

With Chrome OS the kernel setup block is stored in a separate place from
the kernel, so it is not possible to access the kernel version string.
At present, garbage is printed.

Add a sanity check to avoid this.
