A few comment cleanups
I stumbled upon a few comments that I think are outdated. Comment for elfread.c (elf_symfile_init): As far as history goes in git, I don't see anything related to that. Comment for elfread.c (elf_symfile_read): References a parameter that was removed in 1999. Comment for struct sym_fns/sym_offsets: References a parameter that was changed in 1999. gdb/ChangeLog: * elfread.c (elf_symfile_init): Remove stale comment. (elf_symfile_read): Same. * symfile.h (struct sym_fns): Same.
