The relevant syscalls were previously moved from kernel/timer.c to kernel/sys.c,
but the comments weren't updated to reflect this change.

Fixing these comments messes up the alphabetical ordering of syscalls by
filename. This could be fixed by merging the two groups of kernel/sys.c syscalls,
but that would require reordering the syscalls and renumbering them to maintain
the numerical order in unistd.h.
Lots of overly long lines in your commit log.

As for the patch itself:  IMHO we should just remove the comments
about the files as that information is completely irrelevant.
