Petr Tesarik faa7c7ebd8 docs: dma-api: clarify DMA addressing limitations
Move the description of DMA mask from the documentation of dma_map_single()
to Part Ic - DMA addressing limitations and improve the wording.

Explain when a mask setting function may fail, and do not repeat this
explanation for each individual function.

Clarify which device parameters are updated by each mask setting function.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
