buffer: fix unintended successful return

buffer: fix unintended successful return

If try_to_free_buffers() succeeded and then folio_alloc_buffers() failed,
grow_dev_folio() would return success.  This would be incorrect; memory
allocation failure is supposed to result in a failure.  It's a harmless
bug; the caller will simply go around the loop one more time and
grow_dev_folio() will correctly return a failure that time.  But it was an
unintended change and looks like a more serious bug than it is.

While I'm in here, improve the commentary about why we return success even
though we failed.
