Fix kernel-doc warnings for cid_lock and use_cid_lock.
These comments are not in kernel-doc format.

kernel/sched/core.c:11505: warning: Cannot understand * @use_cid_lock: Select cid allocation behavior: lock-free vs spinlock.

Right. It made sense to have those as kernel-doc when those were mm_struct fields in previous versions of the patch, but not anymore now that those are stand-alone static variables.
