I don't think the comment is all that useful. It's also overly long.
I'd suggest this instead:
/*
* When NOWAIT I/O fails to allocate folios this could
* be due to a nonblocking memory allocation and not
* because the system actually is out of memory.
* Return -EAGAIN so that there caller retries in a
* blocking fashion instead of propagating -ENOMEM
* to the application.
