tools/memory-model: Remove out-of-date comments and code from lock.cat
lock.cat contains old comments and code referring to the possibility
of LKR events that are not part of an RMW pair. This is a holdover
from when I though we might end up using LKR events to implement
spin_is_locked(). Reword the comments to remove this assumption and
replace domain(lk-rmw) in the code with LKR.

[ paulmck: Pulled as lock-nest into previous line as discussed. ]
