correct inaccurate comment regarding zone_table's usage

The comment describing the usage of zone_table[] assumes the existence
of an unsigned char page->zone field from the original implementation
of page->zone size reduction. This patch corrects the comment to
accurately describe the lookup mechanism used by page_zone() and also
to mention explicitly the sole user of the table, page_zone().

Against 2.5.19.

Cheers,
Bill
