staging: rtl8712: fix comment
The old comment refers to a typedef name which is being removed, and to a style of calculation which is no longer being used. It falsely states that IELength is variable length, instead of IEs. Change comment to simply state that the IEs field is a buffer of variable size and that IELength refers to the current size.
