Documentation/mm: don't kmap*() pages which can't come from HIGHMEM
There is no need to kmap*() pages which are guaranteed to come from ZONE_NORMAL (or lower). Linux has currently several call sites of kmap{,_atomic,_local_page}() on pages which are clearly known which can't come from ZONE_HIGHMEM. Therefore, add a paragraph to highmem.rst, to explain better that a plain page_address() may be used for getting the address of pages which cannot come from ZONE_HIGHMEM, although it is always safe to use kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local() also on those pages.
