Subject: Remove incorrect comment about fuse_entry_param.generation (#420)

Remove incorrect comment about fuse_entry_param.generation (#420)

A comment said that fuse_entry_param.generation must be non-zero.
However, I can't find anything in the kernel that requires that, and
real-world file systems don't seem to follow that advice, either.
