Subject: [PATCH 2/3] drm/sched: Adjust outdated docu for run_job()

The documentation for drm_sched_backend_ops.run_job() mentions a certain
function called drm_sched_job_recovery(). This function does not exist.
What's actually meant is drm_sched_resubmit_jobs(), which is by now also
deprecated.

Remove the mention of the deprecated function.

Discourage the behavior of drm_sched_backend_ops.run_job() being called
multiple times for the same job.
