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I stumbled upon a few comments that I think are outdated.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.
