mm/selftest: uffd: explain the write missing fault check

It's not obvious why we had a write check for each of the missing
messages, especially when it should be a locking op.  Add a rich comment
for that, and also try to explain its good side and limitations, so that
if someone hit it again for either a bug or a different glibc impl
there'll be some clue to start with.
