Subject: [PATCH] docs: core-api: cachetlb: Fix up invalidate_kernel_vmap_range()

From: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@...gle.com>

The first word of the function description ended up inside the function
prototype, likely during an ReST conversion.  I've fixed that up, the diff
looks big because I re-wrapped the whole paragraph.
