[PATCH] slab: Update stale comment for sheaf_capacity.
From: Kuniyuki Iwashima
Date: Sat Feb 28 2026 - 16:44:03 EST
The comment for sheaf_capacity says it does not enforce NUMA
placement, but it's not true since commit 4ec1a08d2031 ("slab:
allow NUMA restricted allocations to use percpu sheaves").
Let's update the comment.
