signal: Add a proper comment about preempt_disable() in ptrace_stop()

Commit 53da1d94 ("fix ptrace slowness") added a preempt-disable section
between read_unlock() and the following schedule() invocation without
explaining why it is needed.

Replace the existing contentless comment with a proper explanation to
clarify that it is not needed for correctness but for performance reasons.
