Documentation: fix block/biodoc.txt dma mapping description

Browse Source 
- It looks incorrect to use blk_rq_map_sg with pci_map_page here about
  DMA mappings. dma_map_sg?

- better to use dma_map_page instead of pci_map_page.

As mentioned, there is no virtual mapping of a bio. For DMA, this is
not a problem as the driver probably never will need a virtual mapping.
Instead it needs a bus mapping (pci_map_page for a single segment or
use blk_rq_map_sg for scatter gather) to be able to ship it to the driver. For
Instead it needs a bus mapping (dma_map_page for a single segment or

PIO drivers (or drivers that need to revert to PIO transfer once in a
while (IDE for example)), where the CPU is doing the actual data
transfer a virtual mapping is needed. If the driver supports highmem I/O,
