[PATCH v2] btrfs: fix comment in alloc_bitmap() and drop stale TODO

[rtapadia730@gmail.com]

From: Rajeev Tapadia <rtapadia730@gmail.com>

All callers of alloc_bitmap() hold a transaction handle, so GFP_NOFS is
needed to avoid deadlocks on recursion. Update the comment and drop the
stale TODO.

Change log:
As per previous review the change is not required. So just removing the
stale TODO.
