[PATCH 03/10] x86/asm: Tweak the comment about wmb() use for IO

[Borislav Petkov]

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

On x86, we *do* still use the non-nop rmb()/wmb() for IO barriers, but
even that is generally questionable.

Leave them around for historical reasons, unless somebody can point to a
case where they care about the performance. Tweak the comment so people
don't think they are strictly required in all cases.
