gpiolib: Add comments explaining the _cansleep() WARN_ON()s
I've seen users getting very confused by the WARN_ON()s for can_sleep GPIOs in the atomic-safe paths, the discoverability of the non-atomic version of the API seems to be hampered by the fact that it's defined in a header file not the .c file where the warnings are. Add a couple of comments next to the warnings to help people on their way.
