[S390] Remove self ptrace IEEE_IP hack.
The self referential PT_IEEE_IP ptrace peek & poke calls have been broken for that last 6 years. For peek the code always returns 0 instead of the last ieee fault and for poke the code does nothing. Since nobody noticed the code seems to be superfluous. So lets remove it. Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
