labs/kernel-serial-output: adjust explanation about user-space ioctl programs
The serial-get-counter and serial-reset-counter programs no longer
hardcode the device file path: it can be passed as an argument (see
commit 43f7cdf3019c7c25eba8eb76675146c349767da2). Adjust the
explanations accordingly.
