In the previous commit, the function name was changed from pcpu_alloc to
pcpu_alloc_noprof , but the function description was not changed
accordingly.  The function name should be changed to pcpu_alloc_noprof in
the description as well.

A change to a comment causes testing failures? Really?

yup,
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/202409250728.jWiBpk6e-lkp@intel.com

also
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/3cbe26aa-1f6c-48c3-ad5e-203c98333dab@suse.cz
which I didn't 100% understand, but makes me suspect a new patch is needed.
