Subject: [PATCH 2/9] arm64: Add comment for stack_info::kr_cur

We added stack_info::kr_cur in commit:

  cd9bc2c9258816dc ("arm64: Recover kretprobe modified return address in stacktrace")

... but didn't add anything in the corresponding comment block.

For consistency, add a corresponding comment.
