[PATCH] memblock: fix kernel-doc for MEMBLOCK_RSRV_NOINIT

[Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>]

From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>

The kernel-doc description of MEMBLOCK_RSRV_NOINIT and
memblock_reserved_mark_noinit() do not accurately describe their
functionality.

Expand their kernel doc to make it clear that the user of
MEMBLOCK_RSRV_NOINIT is responsible to properly initialize the struct pages
for such regions and add more details about effects of using this flag.
