[PATCH] drm/mm: Some doc polish

[Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>]

Added some boilerplate for the structs, documented members where they
are relevant and plenty of markup for hyperlinks all over. And a few
small wording polish.

Note that the intro needs some more love after the DRM_MM_INSERT_*
patch from Chris has landed.

v2: Spelling fixes (Chris).
