[PATCH] doc: cgroup: update note about conditions when oom killer is invoked

[Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru>]

Starting from v4.19 commit 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory
back to the charge path") cgroup oom killer is no longer invoked only from
page faults. Now it implements the same semantics as global OOM killer:
allocation context invokes OOM killer and keeps retrying until success.
