rcu: Move docbook comments out of rcupdate.h

The include/linux/rcupdate.h file is included by more than 200
files, so shrinking it should provide some build-time benefits.
This commit therefore moves several docbook comments from rcupdate.h to
kernel/rcu/update.c, kernel/rcu/tree.c, and kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h, thus
reducing the number of times that the compiler has to scan these comments.
This likely provides only a small benefit, but every little bit helps.

This commit also fixes a malformed bulleted list noted by the 0day
Test Robot.

- * The callback function will be invoked some time after a full grace

- * sections are delimited by rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(),

- *
- * Note that all CPUs must agree that the grace period extended beyond

- * than one CPU, this means that when "func()" is invoked, each CPU is
- * guaranteed to have executed a full memory barrier since the end of its
- * last RCU read-side critical section whose beginning preceded the call
- * to call_rcu().  It also means that each CPU executing an RCU read-side
- * critical section that continues beyond the start of "func()" must have
- * executed a memory barrier after the call_rcu() but before the beginning
- * of that RCU read-side critical section.  Note that these guarantees
- * include CPUs that are offline, idle, or executing in user mode, as
- * well as CPUs that are executing in the kernel.
- *
- * Furthermore, if CPU A invoked call_rcu() and CPU B invoked the
- * resulting RCU callback function "func()", then both CPU A and CPU B are
- * guaranteed to execute a full memory barrier during the time interval
- * between the call to call_rcu() and the invocation of "func()" -- even
- * if CPU A and CPU B are the same CPU (but again only if the system has
