[patch committed] Fix typo in string/bits/string2.h


I've checked in this patch to fix a typo in string/bits/string2.h.  The
comment above the bzero() macro in this file appears to have been copied
verbatim from the comment above the memset() prototype in string.h
proper.  bzero() has no 'c' argument and can only set memory contents to
0.  (The comment above the prototype of bzero() in string.h proper does
not make the same mistake.)
