Jann Horn 9c40365a65 threads: Update PID limit comment according to futex UAPI change
The futex UAPI changed back in commit 76b81e2b0e ("[PATCH] lightweight
robust futexes updates 2"), which landed in v2.6.17: FUTEX_TID_MASK is now
0x3fffffff instead of 0x1fffffff. Update the corresponding comment in
include/linux/threads.h.

Documentation mentions that only the lower 29 bits are available for TID
storage, but as the UAPI header released the bit already via
FUTEX_TID_MASK, this is moot as well. Fix it up.

[ tglx: Fixed up documentation ]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
