Subject: [PATCH] grub-install: remove useless check PReP partition is empty.

References: bsc#1065738

The grub-install rewrite in commit cd46aa6cefab checks that the PPeP
partition does not install an ELF binary before writing grub to it. This
causes regression in installer scripts that expect to be able to
reinstall bootloaders without first witping the partition by hand.

Fixes: cd46aa6cefab ("Rewrite grub-install, grub-mkrescue,
    grub-mkstandalone and grub-mknetdir ")
