locking/atomic: atomic: remove stale comments
The commentary in asm-generic/atomic.h is stale; let's bring it up-to date: * The block comment at the start of the file mentions this is only usable on UP systems, but is immediately followed by an SMP implementation using cmpxchg. Let's delete the misleading statement. * A comment near the end of the file was originally at the top of the file, but over time rework has shuffled it near the end, and it's long been superceded by the block comment at the top of the file. Let's remove it. * Since asm-generic/atomic.h isn't the canonical documentation for the atomic ops, and since the existing comments are not in kerneldoc format, we don't need to document the semantics of each operation here (and this would be better done in a centralised document). Let's remove these comments.
