I don't think "should lock the folio" is accurate. That sounds like
"it will call folio_lock()" but it actually calls
__folio_set_locked(). Maybe this is better:
"Should only be called with a folio returned by alloc_folio() above.
The folio will set to locked."

I don't really like doing the folio_unlock() *here*, I think it's
clearer if the callers (mfill_atomic_pte_continue() and
__mfill_atomic_pte()) unlocked the folio themselves. But that's just
my opinion.
