READ_ONCE: Fix comment describing 2x32-bit atomicitynoinstr-kcsan-2020-05015
READ_ONCE() permits 64-bit accesses on 32-bit architectures, since this crops up in a few places and is generally harmless because either the upper bits are always zero (e.g. for a virtual address or 32-bit time_t) or the architecture provides 64-bit atomicity anyway. Update the corresponding comment above compiletime_assert_rwonce_type(), which incorrectly states that 32-bit x86 provides 64-bit atomicity, and instead reference 32-bit Armv7 with LPAE.
