Subject: [PATCH] bcache: add code comments for state->pool in __btree_sort()
Git-commit: 7a0bc2a8966040d54289b64842d55e2cf4343ad9
Patch-mainline: v5.6-rc1
References: bsc#1163762

To explain the pages allocated from mempool state->pool can be
swapped in __btree_sort(), because state->pool is a page pool,
which allocates pages by alloc_pages() indeed.
