mm: slab: fix comment for __assume_kmalloc_alignment
The comment next to the __assume_kmalloc_alignment definition is not
precise: kmalloc relies on kmem_cache_alloc, so kmalloc technically returns
pointers aligned to both ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN and ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN,
not only to ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN.
(See create_kmalloc_cache()->create_boot_cache()->calculate_alignment()
for SLAB and SLUB and __do_kmalloc_node() for SLOB.)
Clarify the comment.
The assumption specified by __assume_kmalloc_alignment is still correct,
although it can be made stronger. I'll leave this to a separate patch.
