reads don't have b_iodone callbacks.

Which we don't ;)

The code is functionally identical, so the comment didn't get
changed. As it is, the behaviour that exists in this patch goes away
in later patches, so it's mostly irrelevant that a comment is
absoultely correct in an intermediate point within the patch set.
