highmem: delete a sentence from kmap_local_page() kdocs
kmap_local_page() should always be preferred in place of kmap() and kmap_atomic(). "Only use when really necessary." is not consistent with the Documentation/mm/highmem.rst and these kdocs it embeds. Therefore, delete the above-mentioned sentence from kdocs. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220728154844.10874-7-fmdefrancesco@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Fabio M.
