Commit Message

Rebecca Mckeever April 30, 2022, 10:49 p.m. UTC
Update comments in memblock_remove_*() functions to match the style used
in tests/alloc_*.c by rewording to make the expected outcome more apparent
and, if more than one memblock is involved, adding a visual of the
memory blocks.

If the comment has an extra column of spaces, remove the extra space at
the beginning of each line for consistency and to conform to Linux kernel
coding style.
