The comment for __acpi_map_table() is obvious wrong. In fact, after
commit 1c14fa49 (x86: use early_ioremap in __acpi_map_table), the
comment became stale, so remove it and add a new one.

 /*
- * Temporarily use the virtual area starting from FIX_IO_APIC_BASE_END,
- * to map the target physical address. The problem is that set_fixmap()
- * provides a single page, and it is possible that the page is not
- * sufficient.
- * By using this area, we can map up to MAX_IO_APICS pages temporarily,
- * i.e. until the next __va_range() call.
- *
- * Important Safety Note:  The fixed I/O APIC page numbers are *subtracted*
- * from the fixed base.  That's why we start at FIX_IO_APIC_BASE_END and
- * count idx down while incrementing the phys address.
+ * __acpi_map_table() will be called before the memory allocation
+ * is ready, so call early_ioremap() to map tables.
