Subject: [PATCH 3.12 05/63] KVM: ARM: Update comments for kvm_handle_wfi

From: Christoffer Dall <christoffer.dall@...aro.org>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 82ea046c95a3c3ddcfa058c8a270b9afb6e93700 upstream.

Update comments to reflect what is really going on and add the TWE bit
to the comments in kvm_arm.h.

Also renames the function to kvm_handle_wfx like is done on arm64 for
consistency and uber-correctness.
