mm/highmem: fix kernel-doc warnings in highmem*.h
Patch series "Extend and reorganize Highmem's documentation", v4. This series has the purpose to extend and reorganize Highmem's documentation. This is a work in progress because some information should still be moved from highmem.rst to highmem.h and highmem-internal.h. Specifically I'm talking about moving the "how to" information to the relevant headers, as it as been suggested by Ira Weiny (Intel). Also, this is a work in progress because some kdocs in highmem.h and highmem-internal.h should be improved. This patch (of 4): `scripts/kernel-doc -v -none include/linux/highmem*` reports the following warnings: include/linux/highmem.h:160: warning: expecting prototype for kunmap_atomic(). Prototype was for nr_free_highpages() instead include/linux/highmem.h:204: warning: No description found for return value of 'alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable' include/linux/highmem-internal.h:256: warning: Function parameter or member '__addr' not described in 'kunmap_atomic' include/linux/highmem-internal.h:256: warning: Excess function parameter 'addr' description in 'kunmap_atomic' Fix these warnings by (1) moving the kernel-doc comments from highmem.h to highmem-internal.h (which is the file were the kunmap_atomic() macro is actually defined), (2) extending and merging it with the comment which was already in highmem-internal.h, and (3) using correct parameter names (4) correcting a few technical inaccuracies in comments, and (5) adding a deprecation notice in kunmap_atomic() for consistency with kmap_atomic().
