because it was only used by jprobes which got removed.

This also makes skip_singlestep() a static function since
only ftrace-kprobe.c is using this function.

We can probably get rid of skip_singlestep() completely along with orig_nip since instructions are always 4 bytes on powerpc. So, the changes we do to nip should help to recover the value automatically.
