btrfs: update comment for btrfs_dirty_pages
The original comment is from the initial merge, which has several problems: - No holes check any more - No inline decision is made Update the out-of-date comment with more correct one.

+ * After btrfs_copy_from_user(), update the following things for delalloc:
+ * - Mark newly dirtied pages as DELALLOC in the io tree.
+ * Used to advise which range is to be written back.
+ * - Mark modified pages as Uptodate/Dirty and not needing COW fixup
+ * - Update inode size for past EOF write
