Andy Lutomirski 22c4bd9fa9 x86: Add a comment clarifying LDT context switching
The code is correct, but only for a rather subtle reason.  This
confused me for quite a while when I read switch_mm, so clarify the
code to avoid confusing other people, too.

TBH, I wouldn't be surprised if this code was only correct by
accident.
