Subject: resource: correct reallocate_resource() documentation
Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 15:57:51 +0300
reallocate_resource() documentation claims constraint is about "the size
and alignment" but the size is provided in another parameter. Instead of
size, constraint has the allowed memory range (min, max) so change the
wording to reflect that.
