powerpc/64s: Clarify copy_and_flush() cache sync loop comment
The value loaded into r0 in copy_and_flush() represents the number of
8-byte words processed between cache synchronization operations.
The existing comment refers to cache line size, which can make it appear
that the value is a cache line size in bytes rather than a loop count.
Clarify the comment to explain that the loop processes 8 words (64 bytes)
per cache synchronization iteration, and that increasing the value would
skip cache maintenance for intermediate cache lines.
This is a comment-only change with no functional impact.
