drivers/virtio: Clarify CONFIG_VIRTIO_MEM for unsupported architectures

Let's make it clearer that simply unlocking CONFIG_VIRTIO_MEM on an
architecture is most probably not sufficient to have it working as
expected.

This driver provides access to virtio-mem paravirtualized memory
devices, allowing to hotplug and hotunplug memory.
This driver was only tested under x86-64 and arm64, but should
theoretically work on all architectures that support memory hotplug
and hotremove.
This driver currently only supports x86-64 and arm64. Although it
should compile on other architectures that implement memory
hot(un)plug, architecture-specific and/or common
code changes may be required for virtio-mem, kdump and kexec to work as
expected.
If unsure, say M.
