printk: increase the ring buffer for more than 16 CPUs by default
The default LOG_BUF_SHIFT is 17, which means 128 KB, and LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT is 12, which means 4 KB per CPU. By default the ring buffer is increased when (num_possible_cpus() - 1) * 4 KB > 64 KB, which requires more than 17 CPUs. Remove the explicit subtraction of one, so the ring buffer is increased for more than 16 CPUs, which is a power of two. Also fix the outdated comment.
