initrd: Remove erroneous comment
Most architectures have been passing the location of an initrd via the initrd= option since their inception. Remove the comment as it's both wrong and unrelated to the commit that introduced it. For a bit more context, I assume there's been some confusion between "initrd" being a keyword in things like extlinux.conf and also that for quite a long time now initrd information is passed via device tree and not the command line on relevant architectures. But it's still true that it's been a valid command line option to the kernel since the 90s. It's just the case that in 2018 the code was consolidated from under arch/ and in to this file.
