mm: sl[uo]b: fix misleading comments
On x86, SLUB creates and handles <=8192-byte allocations internally.
It passes larger ones up to the allocator. Saying "up to order 2" is,
at best, ambiguous. Is that order-1? Or (order-2 bytes)? Make
it more clear.
SLOB commits a similar sin. It *handles* page-size requests, but the
comment says that it passes up "all page size and larger requests".
SLOB also swaps around the order of the very-similarly-named
KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH and KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX #defines. Make it
consistent with the order of the other two allocators.
