Subject: [PATCH v2] crypto/jitterentropy-kcapi: remove unnecessary information from a comment

The clocksource does not provide clocksource_register() function since
f893598 commit (clocksource: Mostly kill clocksource_register()), so
let's remove unnecessary information about this function from a comment.
