hw/s390x: Add a more verbose comment about get_machine_class() and the wrappers
While working on the "Enable adapter interruption suppression again" recently, I had to discover that the meaning of get_machine_class() and the related *_allowed() wrappers is not very obvious. Add a more verbose comment here to clarify how these should be used.
