ipc/util.c: correct comment in ipc_obtain_object_check
The comment that explains ipc_obtain_object_check is wrong: The function checks the sequence number, not the reference counter. Note that checking the reference counter would be meaningless: The reference counter is decreased without holding any locks, thus an object with kern_ipc_perm.deleted=true may disappear at the end of the next rcu grace period.
