[PATCH v1 7/7] fs: update documentation of get_write_access() and friends

[David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>]

As VM_DENYWRITE does no longer exists, let's spring-clean the
documentation of get_write_access() and friends.

  * Normally we operate on that counter with atomic_{inc,dec} and it's safe
  * except for the cases where we don't hold i_writecount yet. Then we need to
