kernel: relay: remove relay_file_splice_read dead code, doesn't work

Documentation/filesystems/relay.rst says to use
return debugfs_create_file(filename, mode, parent, buf,
&relay_file_operations);
and this is the only way relay_file_operations is used.

Thus: debugfs_create_file(&relay_file_operations)
-> __debugfs_create_file(&debugfs_full_proxy_file_operations,
&relay_file_operations)
-> dentry{inode: {i_fop: &debugfs_full_proxy_file_operations},
d_fsdata: &relay_file_operations
| DEBUGFS_FSDATA_IS_REAL_FOPS_BIT}

debugfs_full_proxy_file_operations.open is full_proxy_open, which extracts
the &relay_file_operations from the dentry, and allocates via
__full_proxy_fops_init() new fops, with trivial wrappers around release,
llseek, read, write, poll, and unlocked_ioctl, then replaces the fops on
the opened file therewith.

Naturally, all thusly-created debugfs files have .splice_read = NULL.
This was introduced in commit 49d200deaa68 ("debugfs: prevent access to
removed files' private data") from 2016-03-22.

AFAICT, relay_file_operations is the only struct file_operations used for
debugfs which defines a .splice_read callback. Hooking it up with

shows it just doesn't work, and splicing always instantly returns empty
(subsequent reads actually return the contents).

No-one noticed it became dead code in 2016, who knows if it worked back
then. Clearly no-one cares; just delete it.
