Benjamin Kaduk f7c6915358 Update extra-iput configure argument description 
Commit 15260c7fdc did not function
as advertised, since the conditional which attempted to make
the configure option --(en|dis)able-linux-d_splice_alias-extra-iput
mandatory on linux checked a variable for the system type which
was not set at the time the check ran.

Subsequent discussion of this behavior produced a consensus that
there is not a need to make the configure option mandatory,
due to the narrow range of kernels affected by the bug in question,
so this follow-up commit just fixes the documentation and removes
the ineffective code.

README 

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and
access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.

OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the
IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10).  For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE
file in this directory.  The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed
under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by
the relevant copyright holders.  The LICENSE file in this directory
contains more details, thought not a comprehensive statement.

on various platforms.
