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.
