The new instruction_pointer_set helper is defined for people who have
converted to asm-generic/ptrace.h, so don't use it generally unless
the arch needs it (in which case it has been converted). This should
fix building of kgdb tests for arches not yet converted.

Since 'íp' is local, incrementing it is pointless here unless you have GDB_ADJUSTS_BREAK_OFFSET defined. Why not keep instruction_pointer_set() call as is?

+#ifdef GDB_ADJUSTS_BREAK_OFFSET

return 0;
