KVM: x86/mmu: Expand on the comment in kvm_vcpu_ad_need_write_protect()

Expand the comment about need to use write-protection for nested EPT
when PML is enabled to clarify that the tagging is a nop when PML is
_not_ enabled.  Without the clarification, omitting the PML check looks
wrong at first^Wfifth glance.
