[PATCH mm-stable 1/2] x86/mm: further clarify switch_mm_irqs_off() documentation

[Yosry Ahmed]

Commit accf6b23d1e5a ("x86/mm: clarify "prev" usage in
switch_mm_irqs_off()") attempted to clarify x86's usage of the arguments
passed by generic code, specifically the "prev" argument the is unused
by x86. However, it could have done a better job with the comment above
switch_mm_irqs_off(). Rewrite this comment according to Dave Hansen's
suggestion.

 /*
- * The "prev" argument passed by the caller does not always match CR3. For
- * example, the scheduler passes in active_mm when switching from lazy TLB mode
- * to normal mode, but switch_mm_irqs_off() can be called from x86 code without
- * updating active_mm. Use cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm instead.
+ * This optimizes when not actually switching mm's.  Some architectures use the
+ * 'unused' argument for this optimization, but x86 must use
+ * 'cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm' instead because it does not always keep
+ * 'current->active_mm' up to date.
