net: Temporarily backout SKB sources tracer.

Steven Rostedt has suggested that Neil work with the tracing
folks, trying to use TRACE_EVENT as the mechanism for
implementation.  And if that doesn't workout we can investigate
other solutions such as that one which was tried here.

This reverts the following 2 commits:

5a165657be
("net: skb ftracer - Add config option to enable new ftracer (v3)")

9ec04da748
("net: skb ftracer - Add actual ftrace code to kernel (v3)")
