docs: cgroup-v1: Update charge-commit section



Commit 1d8f136a ("memcg/hugetlb: remove memcg hugetlb
try-commit-cancel protocol") removed mem_cgroup_commit_charge() and
mem_cgroup_cancel_charge(), but the docs still refer to those functions.
There is no longer any charge cancellation.

Update the docs to match the code.

=======================

	Memcg pages are charged in two steps:

		- mem_cgroup_try_charge()
		- mem_cgroup_commit_charge() or mem_cgroup_cancel_charge()
		- commit_charge()

	At try_charge(), there are no flags to say "this page is charged".
	at this point, usage += PAGE_SIZE.

	At commit(), the page is associated with the memcg.

	At cancel(), simply usage -= PAGE_SIZE.

Under below explanation, we assume CONFIG_SWAP=y.
