x86/traps: Drop incorrect BUILD_BUG_ON() and comment in load_system_tables()
This was added erroneously by me.
Hardware task switching does demand a TSS of at least 0x67 bytes, but that's
not relevant in 64bit, and not relevant for Xen since commit
5d1181a5ea5e ("xen: Remove x86_32 build target.") in 2012.
We already load a 0-length TSS in early_traps_init() demonstrating that it's
possible.
