KVM: PPC: booke: add GS documentation for program interrupt
The comment for program interrupts triggered when using bookehv was misleading. Update it to mention why MSR_GS indicates that we have to inject an interrupt into the guest again, not emulate it. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
