kernfs: modernize the explanation for bind mounting /dev
If you are using a "modern" distro (with devtmpfs and a modern udev
implementation), a bind mounting is actually not needed because you can
mount devtmpfs anyway. The only reason for bind mounting is to be
compatible with old host distros where /dev is a directory containing
many static device nodes, or is a tmpfs (not same as devtmpfs) popluated
by bootscript or an old udev (modern udev implementations, including
eudev and systemd-udev used by LFS, strictly requires a devtmpfs on
/dev).
So update the explanation to match the status quo.
