mm/page_alloc: add kernel-docs for free_pages()

Patch series "Cleanup free_pages() misuse", v3.

free_pages() is supposed to be called when we only have a virtual address.
__free_pages() is supposed to be called when we have a page.

There are a number of callers that use page_address() to get a page's
virtual address then call free_pages() on it when they should just call
__free_pages() directly.

Add kernel-docs for free_pages() to help callers better understand which
function they should be calling, and replace the obvious cases of misuse.


This patch (of 7):

Add kernel-docs to free_pages().  This will help callers understand when
to use it instead of __free_pages().
