This code comment is confusing because it states that
reactToRuleUpdates() waits until all endpoints have been regenerated.
Upon code inspection, this is incorrect and not necessary either. It is
not necessary because 2820a1f ("daemon: Switch policy over to new
IPCache interface") fixed the previously buggy behavior where prefixes
were pushed into the ipcache BPF map before the policy recalculation
(i.e. endpoint regeneration) has completed (endpoint policymap entries).
This buggy behavior likely caused CI flakes of some sort when new
policies were added.
The 8f20d3b commit mistakenly asserted this, so fix it in this
commit.
Fixes: 8f20d3b ("daemon: Postpone ipcache upserts until after policy
changes have been regenerated by endpoints.")
