[PATCH] docs: admin-guide: remove obsolete advice related to SLAB allocator

[Lukas Bulwahn]

Commit 1db9d06aaa55 ("mm/slab: remove CONFIG_SLAB from all Kconfig and
Makefile") removes the config SLAB and makes the SLUB allocator the only
default allocator in the kernel. Hence, the advice on reducing OS jitter
due to kworker kernel threads to build with CONFIG_SLUB instead of
CONFIG_SLAB is obsolete.

Remove the obsolete advice to build with SLUB instead of SLAB.
