[PATCH v4 02/15] objtool: Move back misplaced comment

A comment was introduced by commit 113d4bc90483 ("objtool: Fix
clang switch table edge case") and wrongly moved by
commit d871f7b5a6a2 ("objtool: Refactor jump table code to support
other architectures") without the piece of code added with the
comment in the original commit.

Fixes: d871f7b5a6a2 ("objtool: Refactor jump table code to support other architectures")
