Mathieu Desnoyers d84525a845 sched/preempt: Fix preempt notifiers documentation about hlist_del() within unsafe iteration
preempt_notifier_unregister() documents:

  "This is safe to call from within a preemption notifier."

However, both fire_sched_in_preempt_notifiers() and
fire_sched_out_preempt_notifiers() are using hlist_for_each_entry(),
which is not safe against entry removal during iteration.

Inspection of the KVM code does not reveal any use of
preempt_notifier_unregister() within the preempt notifiers.

Therefore, fix the comment.
