Subject: Documentation/mm: Drop pxx_mkdevmap() descriptions from page table helpers
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2025 13:00:45 +0100

Remove pxx_mkdevmap() descriptions, as these helper functions have already
been dropped (including DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE test) via the commit d438d2734170
("mm: remove devmap related functions and page table bits").
