[PATCH] ARM: imx: improve the comment of CCM lpm SW workaround

Improve the comment of SW workaround for CCM lpm issue using
hardware errata description to avoid confusion.

TKT194736:
Chip will enter low power mode before ARM A9 CPU executes
WFI when improper low power sequence is used.

SW workaround:
1) SW will trigger irq #32(IOMUX) to be always pending manually by setting IOMUX_GPR1_GINT bit,
2) SW should then Unmask it in GPC before setting CCM LPM
3) SW should Mask it right after CCM LPM is set (set bit0-1 of CCM_CLPCR)
