KVM: x86/mmu: Clean up function comments for dirty logging APIs
Rework the function comment for kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked() into the body of the function, as it has gotten a bit stale, is harder to read without the code context, and is the last source of warnings for W=1 builds in KVM x86 due to using a kernel-doc comment without documenting all parameters. Opportunistically subsume the functions comments for kvm_mmu_write_protect_pt_masked() and kvm_mmu_clear_dirty_pt_masked(), as there is no value in regurgitating similar information at a higher level, and capturing the differences between write-protection and PML-based dirty logging is best done in a common location. No functional change intended.
