x86/mm: Improve documentation for low-level device I/O functions

Jonathan Corbet · Ingo Molnar · commit f58576666ccd · 2017-01-28T09:37:51.000+01:00
Add kerneldoc comments for memcpy_{to,from}io() and memset_io(). The existing documentation for ioremap() was distant from the definition, causing kernel-doc to miss it; move it appropriately.
