MAGIC_START("IKCFG_ST") and MAGIC_END("IKCFG_ED") are moved out
from the kernel_config_data variable [1].

Thus, we parse kernel_config_data directly instead of considering
offset of MAGIC_START and MAGIC_END.

Fixes: 13610aa908dc ("kernel/configs: use .incbin directive to embed config_data.gz")

Thanks for the fix.

Applied to linux-kbuild/fixes.
