trivial: doc: hpfall: accept disk device to unload as argument

Allows users who use an IDE driver for their disk to use hpfall without
having to modify the source. By default /dev/sda is used.
Suggested by Christian Thaeter in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/25/505.

While we're add it, improve error message if opening /dev/freefall fails.
