mm: rename zap_vma_ptes() to zap_special_vma_range()
zap_vma_ptes() is the only zapping function we export to modules.
It's essentially a wrapper around zap_vma_range(), however, with some
safety checks:
* That the passed range fits fully into the VMA
* That it's only used for VM_PFNMAP
We will add support for VM_MIXEDMAP next, so use the more-generic term
"special vma", although "special" is a bit overloaded. Maybe we'll later
just support any VM_SPECIAL flag.
While at it, improve the kerneldoc.
