mm/slub: correct the comment in calculate_order()



In calculate_order(), it tries to calculate the best order by adjusting
the fraction and min_objects.  On each iteration on min_objects, fraction
iterates on 16, 8, 4.  Which means the acceptable waste increases with
1/16, 1/8, 1/4.

This patch corrects the comment according to the code.
