doc: fix documentation about UIO_MEM_LOGICAL using

After commit d4fc5069a394 ("mm: switch s_mem and slab_cache in struct page")
page->mapping will be re-used by slab allocations and page->mapping->host
will be used in balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() as an inode member but
it's not an inode in fact and leads an oops.

According another commit 5e901d0b15c0 ("scsi: qedi: Fix bad pte call trace
when iscsiuio is stopped."), using kmalloc also cause other problem.

But the documentation about UIO_MEM_LOGICAL allows using kmalloc(), remove
and don't allow using kmalloc() in documentation.
