mm: correct the comment when reclaimed pages exceed the scanned pages

Browse Source 
Commit e1587a4945 ("mm: vmpressure: fix sending wrong events on
underflow") declared that reclaimed pages exceed the scanned pages due
to the thp reclaim.

That is incorrect because THP will be spilt to normal page and loop
again, which will result in the scanned pages increment.
