mm: memcontrol: update mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() documentation
Commit 7512102 ("memcg: fix GPF when cgroup removal races with last exit") added a pc->mem_cgroup reset into mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to prevent a crash where an anon page gets uncharged on unmap, the memcg is released, and then the final LRU isolation on free dereferences the stale pc->mem_cgroup pointer. But since commit 0a31bc9 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API"), pages are only uncharged AFTER that final LRU isolation, which guarantees the memcg's lifetime until then. pc->mem_cgroup now only needs to be reset for swapcache readahead pages. Update the comment and callsite requirements accordingly.
