Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] mm/highmem: Fix kernel-doc warnings in highmem*.h

`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, (3) using correct parameter names, (4)
adding description of return value of alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(),
(5) correcting some technical inaccuracies in comments, and (5) adding a
deprecation notice in kunmap_atomic() for consistency with kmap_atomic().
