[PATCH 2/2] vfree: Update documentation

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

 * Document that you can call vfree() on an address returned from vmap()
 * Remove the note about the minimum size -- the minimum size of a vmalloc
   allocation is one page
 * Add a Context: section
 * Fix capitalisation
 * Reword the prohibition on calling from NMI context to avoid a double
   negative
