KVM: x86/mmu: Add comment on try_cmpxchg64 usage in tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic
Commit aee98a6 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Use try_cmpxchg64 in
tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic") removed the comment that iter->old_spte is
updated when different logical CPU modifies the page table entry.
Although this is what try_cmpxchg does implicitly, it won't hurt
if this fact is explicitly mentioned in a restored comment.
