The panic notifier of this driver is very simple code-wise, just a memory

from the semantic point-of-view, and there is no public documentation
about that either.

After discussing this in the mailing-lists [0] and having Florian explained
it very well, this patch just document that in the code for the future
generations asking the same questions. Also, it removes a useless header.
