Many kernel-doc comments referenced by Documentation/core-api/mm-api.rst
have the return value descriptions misformatted or lack it completely. This
makes kernel-doc script unhappy and produces more than 100 warnings when
running 

	make htmldocs V=1

These patches fix the formatting of present return value descriptions and
add some new ones.

As these patches touch lots of mm/ files, I think it's better to merge them
via -mm tree.

Side note:
----------
I've noticed that kernel-doc produces

	warning: contents before sections

when it is parsing description of a function that has no parameters, but
does have a return value, i.e.

	unsigned long nr_free_buffer_pages(void)

As far as I can tell, the generated html is ok no matter if the detailed
description present before 'the sections', so probably this warning is not
really needed?
