Subject: [PATCH] ipc/sem: fix kernel-doc for perform_atomic_semop_slow

Building with W=1 warns:
Warning: ipc/sem.c:629 This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc
comment. Refer Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * perform_atomic_semop[_slow] - Attempt to perform semaphore

The function name was changed as part of commit 4ce33ec2e42d ("ipc/sem:
optimize perform_atomic_semop()"), but the kernel-doc uses "perform_atomic_semop[_slow]".
Document the function name explicitly to squash warning.
