Subject: [PATCH -next] cgroup: Remove out-of-date comment in cgroup_migrate()

From: Xiu Jianfeng <xiujianfeng@...wei.com>

Commit 674b745e22b3 ("cgroup: remove rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock()
in critical section of spin_lock_irq()") has removed the rcu_read_lock,
which makes the comment out-of-date, so remove it.
