xtensa: ISS: add comment about etherdev freeing
iss_net_configure explicitly frees etherdev in all error return paths except one where register_netdevice fails. In that remaining error return path the etherdev is freed by the iss_net_pdev_release callback triggered by the platform_device_unregister call. Add a comment stating that.
