Kconfig: SLUB is the default slab allocator
In 2007, a0acd820807680d2ccc4ef3448387fcdbf152c73 changed the default slab allocator to SLUB, but the SLAB help text still says SLAB is the default. This change fixes that. Signed-off-by: Simon Arlott <simon@fire.lp0.eu> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>
