sh/ftrace: Remove only user of ftrace_arch_read_dyn_info()
I noticed that there's only one user of ftrace_arch_read_dyn_info(). That was used a while ago during the NMI updating in x86, and superh copied it to implement its version of handling NMIs during stop_machine(). But that is a debug feature, and this code hasn't been touched since 2009. Also, x86 no longer does the ftrace updates with stop_machine() and instead uses breakpoints. If superh needs to modify its code, it should implement the breakpoint conversion, and remove stop_machine(). Which also gets rid of the NMI issue. Anyway, I want to nuke ftrace_arch_read_dyn_info() and this gets rid of the one user, which is for an arch that shouldn't need it anymore.
