cgroup/cpuset: Update stale generate_sched_domains() comments

Commit:

  fc560a26acce ("cpuset: replace cpuset->stack_list with cpuset_for_each_descendant_pre()")

removed the local list (q) that was used to perform a top-down scan
of all cpusets; however, comments mentioning it were not updated.

Update comments to reflect current implementation.
