ext4: remove unnecessary comments in ext4_orphan_add()
The comment from Al Viro about possible race in the ext4_orphan_add() is not justified. There is no race possible as we always have either i_mutex locked, or the inode can not be referenced from outside hence the J_ASSERS should not be hit from the reason described in comment. This commit replaces it with notion that we are holding i_mutex so it should not be possible for i_nlink to be changed while waiting for s_orphan_lock.
