Andy Lutomirski e54fdcca70 x86/signal/64: Add a comment about sigcontext->fs and gs
These fields have a strange history.  This tries to document it.

This borrows from 9a036b93a3 ("x86/signal/64: Remove 'fs' and 'gs'
from sigcontext"), which was reverted by ed596cde94 ("Revert x86
sigcontext cleanups").
