Frederic Weisbecker 60ba9c38b9 kthread: Comment on the purpose and placement of kthread_affine_node() call 
It may not appear obvious why kthread_affine_node() is not called before
the kthread creation completion instead of after the first wake-up.

The reason is that kthread_affine_node() applies a default affinity
behaviour that only takes place if no affinity preference have already
been passed by the kthread creation call site.

Add a comment to clarify that.
