[PATCH 1/2] mm/gup.c: fix the wrong comments

[Huang Shijie]

When CONFIG_HAVE_GENERIC_GUP is defined, the kernel will use its own
get_user_pages_fast().

In the following scenario, we will may meet the bug in the DMA case:
	    .....................
	    get_user_pages_fast(start,,, pages);
	        ......
	    sg_alloc_table_from_pages(, pages, ...);
	    .....................

The root cause is that sg_alloc_table_from_pages() requires the
page order to keep the same as it used in the user space, but
get_user_pages_fast() will mess it up.

So change the comments, and make it more clear for the driver
users.
