tracing/osnoise: Improve comments about barrier need for NMI callbacks
trace_osnoise_callback_enabled is used by ftrace_nmi_enter/exit()
to know when to call the NMI callback. The barrier is used to
avoid having callbacks enabled before the resetting date during
the start or to touch the values after stopping the tracer.
