Since commit 79dfdaccd1d5 ("memcg: make oom_lock 0 and 1 based rather than counter"), the mem_cgroup_unmark_under_oom() is added and the comment of the mem_cgroup_oom_unlock() is moved here. But this comment make no sense here because mem_cgroup_oom_lock() does not operate on under_oom field. So we reword the comment as this would be helpful. [Thanks Michal Hocko for rewording this comment.]
