mm/gup: remove obsolete FOLL_LONGTERM comment

These days FOLL_LONGTERM is not allowed at all on any get_user_pages*()
functions, it must be only be used with pin_user_pages*(), plus it now has
universal support for all the pin_user_pages*() functions.

* FIXME: Also NOTE that FOLL_LONGTERM is not supported in every GUP call.
* Currently only get_user_pages() and get_user_pages_fast() support this flag
* and calls to get_user_pages_[un]locked are specifically not allowed. This
* is due to an incompatibility with the FS DAX check and

* FOLL_LONGTERM is specified.
