x86: correct/clarify comment in nops.h
<asm-x86/nops.h> describes certain multibyte instructions as "generic" nops when in fact they aren't nops at all in 64-bit mode (missing REX.W causing truncation of a register). Update the comment to state that K8 or P6 style nops should be used in 64-bit mode. This matches what the alternatives code does.
