Michael Opdenacker e7efa615cc slab: add kmalloc() to kernel API documentation
At the moment, kmalloc() isn't even listed in the kernel API
documentation (DocBook/kernel-api.html after running "make htmldocs").

Another issue is that the documentation for kmalloc_node()
refers to kcalloc()'s documentation to describe its 'flags' parameter,
while kcalloc() refered to kmalloc()'s documentation, which doesn't exist!

This patch is a proposed fix for this. It also removes the documentation
for kmalloc() in include/linux/slob_def.h which isn't included to
generate the documentation anyway. This way, kmalloc() is described
in only one place.

*
* %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
*
* %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep. May use emergency pools.

*

*
* %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
*
* %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
*
* %GFP_NOWAIT - Allocation will not sleep.
*
* %GFP_THISNODE - Allocate node-local memory only.
*
* %GFP_DMA - Allocation suitable for DMA.
* Should only be used for kmalloc() caches. Otherwise, use a
* slab created with SLAB_DMA.
*
* Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
* in one or more of the following additional @flags:
*
* %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of

*
* %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
*
* %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
* (think twice before using).
*
* %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
* then give up at once.
*
* %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
*
* %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
*
