[PATCH 2/2] barrier: Remove unfinished sentence

Remove the unfinished sentence
"Since a barrier is, by definition, never immediately [...]"
and jump directly to
"The task may wait [forever or for a timeout]"
instead.

I cannot figure out what the unfinished sentence is supposed to be -
"released"? "passed"?
