Subject: Tweak realloc/MREMAP comment to be more accurate.
X-Git-Tag: glibc-2.26~555

Tweak realloc/MREMAP comment to be more accurate.

MMap'd memory isn't shrunk without MREMAP, but IIRC this is intentional for
performance reasons.  Regardless, this patch tweaks the existing comment to
be more accurate wrt the existing code.
