mm/gup: update comment explaining why gup_fast() disables IRQs
The current comment in gup_fast() talks about "IPIs that come from THPs
splitting", which is outdated and refers to the old THP splitting
implementation that was removed in commit
ad0bed24e98b ("thp: drop all
split_huge_page()-related code"), which landed in v4.5. Before then, THP
splitting involved a pmdp_splitting_flush(), which sent an IPI to
serialize against gup_fast().
Nowadays, we use tlb_remove_table_sync_one() to send IPIs that serialize
against gup_fast(); this is used, for example, in THP *collapsing* to stop
gup_fast() walks of a page table before depositing it.
