futex: Correct futex_q woken state commentary
Use kernel-doc format to describe struct futex_q.
Correct the wakeup definition to eliminate the statement about
waking the waiter between the plist_del() and the q->lock_ptr = 0.
Note in the comment that PI futexes have a different definition of
the woken state.
