Commit 050a9adc64 ("mm: consolidate the get_user_pages* implementations")
moved get_user_pages_fast() from mm/util.c to mm/gup.c, but didn't update
the documentation, leading to this build warning:
./mm/util.c:1: warning: 'get_user_pages_fast' not found
Update the docs to match the new reality.

Fix the mismatch between "Useful GFP flag combinations" section naming in
the DOC: section in include/linux/gfp.h and
Documentation/core-api/mm-api.rst. This brings in the documentation,
and eliminates one warning:
./include/linux/gfp.h:1: warning: no structured comments found

Several functions in mm/slab_common.c have kernel-doc comments, it makes
perfect sense to link them to the MM API reference.

The mm-api.rst covers variety of memory management APIs under "More Memory
Management Functions" section. The descriptions included there are in a
random order there are quite a few of them which makes the section too
long.
Regrouping the documentation by subject and splitting the long "More Memory
Management Functions" section into several smaller sections makes the
generated html more usable.

This is basically copy-paste of the memory management section from
kernel-api.rst with some minor adjustments:
* The "User Space Memory Access" is moved to the beginning
* The get_user_pages_fast reference is now a part of "User Space Memory
Access"
* And, of course, headings are adjusted with section being promoted to
chapters
