builtin/apply: remove misleading comment on lock_file field

gitster · gitster · commit a7d4c49a8201 · 2016-06-06T13:11:02.000-07:00
Just like pointer field like prefix, the piece of memory pointed at
by lock_file field is not owned by the apply_state structure.  It is
true that the caller needs to be careful about the lifetime rule for
lockfile instances, but that is none of this API's business.
