Subject[PATCH] threads: Update PID limit comment according to futex UAPI change
From
The futex UAPI changed back in commit 76b81e2b0e22 ("[PATCH] lightweight
robust futexes updates 2"), which landed in v2.6.17: FUTEX_TID_MASK is now
0x3fffffff instead of 0x1fffffff. Update the corresponding comment in
include/linux/threads.h.
