sched/completion: Document that reinit_completion() must be called after complete_all()
The complete_all() function modifies the completion's "done" variable to UINT_MAX, and no other caller (wait_for_completion(), etc) will modify it back to zero. That means that any call to complete_all() must have a reinit_completion() before that completion can be used again. Document this fact by the complete_all() function. Also document that completion_done() will always return true if complete_all() is called.
