mm/migrate_device.c: fix a misleading and outdated comment

Commit ab09243aa9 ("mm/migrate.c: remove MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED") changed
the way trylock_page() in migrate_vma_collect_pmd() works without updating
the comment.  Reword the comment to be less misleading and a better
reflection of what happens.
