David Hildenbrand 478fd0d8ec Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst: drop "Using pagemap to do something useful"
That example was added in 2008.  In 2015, we restricted access to the PFNs
in the pagemap to CAP_SYS_ADMIN, making that approach quite less usable.

It's 2024 now, and using that racy and low-lewel mechanism to calculate
the USS should not be considered a good example anymore.  /proc/$pid/smaps
and /proc/$pid/smaps_rollup can do a much better job without any of that
low-level handling.

Let's just drop that example.
