mm/Kconfig: correct description of DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT
The description mentions kswapd threads, while the deferred struct page initialization is actually done by one-off "pgdatinitX" threads. Fix the description so that potentially users are not confused about pgdatinit threads using CPU after boot instead of kswapd.
