Linus Torvalds d10d89ec78 Add commentary about the new "asmlinkage_protect()" macro
It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully
be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the
low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big
honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros.

I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding
to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his
prettier syntax that uses vararg macros).  Thus the previous two commits
that actually implement it.
