mm/gup: remove obsolete FOLL_LONGTERM comment

These days FOLL_LONGTERM is not allowed at all on any get_user_pages*()
functions, it must be only be used with pin_user_pages*(), plus it now has
universal support for all the pin_user_pages*() functions.

  * In the CMA case: long term pins in a CMA region would unnecessarily fragment

  * FOLL_LONGTERM is specified.
