x86/entry: Remove outdated comment about SYSCALL targets

The comment probably meant some old AMD64 incarnation which most likely
never saw the light of day. STAR and LSTAR are two different registers
and STAR sets CS/SS(DS) selectors for *all* modes, not only 32-bit.

So simply remove that comment.
