m68klinux-nat: Remove obsolete comment

As noted by Joel, the comment is obsolete now that
FETCH_INFERIOR_REGISTERS does not exist any more.  I took the
opportunity to simplify fetch_register and store_register a bit.

Andreas.

	* m68klinux-nat.c: Remove obsolete comment.
	(fetch_register, store_register): Don't call
	gdbarch_cannot_fetch_register or gdbarch_cannot_store_register,
	which are always nops here.
