It looks like code got shuffled around into elf_map() and no one
bothered moving the comment alongside the corresponding code. And
it's actually mapping the interpreter. There's a second comment
which is actually accurate there; I suspect the interpreter mapping
code was copied from the library mapping code without resynching the
comment either.

Realign ancient comment with modern source, including adjusting the
name of the function said to be used to map things.
