doc: Fix various RCU docbook comment-header problems
Because many of RCU's files have not been included into docbook, a number of errors have accumulated. This commit fixes them. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
