Vlastimil Babka 8012d0b051 ring-buffer: remove obsolete comment for free_buffer_page()
[ Upstream commit a98151ad53 ]

The comment refers to mm/slob.c which is being removed. It comes from
commit ed56829cb3 ("ring_buffer: reset buffer page when freeing") and
according to Steven the borrowed code was a page mapcount and mapping
reset, which was later removed by commit e4c2ce82ca ("ring_buffer:
allocate buffer page pointer"). Thus the comment is not accurate anyway,
remove it.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
