True, but better to change the comment than to confuse people.
Lots of it is outdated because reservations aren't per device anymore.

Changes to your version:
- Got rid of memalloc_socks.
- Don't include inetdevice.h (it isn't needed anymore, right?)
- Updated comment.

(I'm editing the diff, so this won't apply)

What's missing now is an adjust_memalloc_reserve(5 * MAX_CONCURRENT_SKBS)
call in some init code.
