reviewerPATCH 1/1 arm64: head.S: fix up stale comments
In commit 23c8a500c24d02dd ("arm64: kernel: use ordinary return/argument register for el2_setup()"), we stopped using w20 as a global stash of the boot mode flag, and instead pass this around in w0 as a function parameter.
Unfortunately, we missed a couple of comments, which still refer to the old convention of using w20/x20.
This patch fixes up the comments to describe the code as it currently works.

No worries; I missed this in review, too...
