cgroup/cpuset: update some comments about the page allocator
These comments describing the page allocator are out of date:
- __alloc_pages() is no longer a public API and has no business being
described outside of mm/.
- The `wait` variable is gone.
It may be out of date for other reasons too but this patch is just
fixing the issues that stood out.
To fix it:
- Instead of referring to a specific function, instead to "the page
allocator"
- Completely drop out-of-date details of that function's internal
behaviour, since they were irrelevant anyway.
