Jann Horn 004a9a38e2 mm: userfaultfd: remove stale comment about core dump locking ...

Since commit 7f3bfab52c ("mm/gup: take mmap_lock in get_dump_page()"),
which landed in v5.10, core dumping doesn't enter fault handling without
holding the mmap_lock anymore.  Remove the stale parts of the comments,
but leave the behavior as-is - letting core dumping block on userfault
handling would be a bad idea and could lead to deadlocks if the dumping
process was handling its own userfaults.
