Subject: [PATCH 3/8] mm/percpu: Update the code comment when creating new chunk
Date:   Mon, 24 Oct 2022 16:14:30 +0800

The lock pcpu_alloc_mutex taking code has been moved to the beginning of
pcpu_allo() if it's non atomic allocation. So the code comment above
above pcpu_create_chunk() callsite need be updated.
