While you are right I find the comment more confusing then helpful.
What does it try to tell us actually? Is it still valid? Shouldn't we
rather remove it or make it more clear?

Since commit fb2a6fc56be6 ("mm: memcg: rework and document OOM waiting and
wakeup"), we have renamed mem_cgroup_oom_lock to mem_cgroup_oom_trylock. So
replace mem_cgroup_oom_lock with mem_cgroup_oom_trylock in comment.
