Mathieu Desnoyers 0fb9a1abc8 rseq: uapi: Update uapi comments
Update rseq uapi header comments to reflect that user-space need to do
thread-local loads/stores from/to the struct rseq fields.

As a consequence of this added requirement, the kernel does not need
to perform loads/stores with single-copy atomicity.

Update the comment associated to the "flags" fields to describe
more accurately that it's only useful to facilitate single-stepping
through rseq critical sections with debuggers.
