[PATCH] slab: page mapping cleanup 

Clean up slab allocator page mapping a bit.  The memory allocated for a
slab is physically contiguous so it is okay to assume struct pages are too
so kill the long-standing comment.  Furthermore, rename set_slab_attr to
slab_map_pages and add a comment explaining why its needed.
