lib/stackdepot: move documentation comments to stackdepot.h

Move all interface- and usage-related documentation comments to
include/linux/stackdepot.h.

It makes sense to have them in the header where they are available to
the interface users.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: grammar fix, per Alexander]

 /*
  * Stack depot - a stack trace storage that avoids duplication.
  *
- * Stack depot is intended to be used by subsystems that need to store and
- * later retrieve many potentially duplicated stack traces without wasting
- * memory.
- *
- * For example, KASAN needs to save allocation and free stack traces for each
- * object. Storing two stack traces per object requires a lot of memory (e.g.
- * SLUB_DEBUG needs 256 bytes per object for that). Since allocation and free
- * stack traces often repeat, using stack depot allows to save about 100x space.
- *
  * Internally, stack depot maintains a hash table of unique stacktraces. The
  * stack traces themselves are stored contiguously one after another in a set
  * of separate page allocations.
  *
- * Stack traces are never removed from stack depot.

- * @can_alloc:		Allocate stack pools (increased chance of failure if false)
- *
- * Saves a stack trace from @entries array of size @nr_entries. If @can_alloc is
- * %true, stack depot can replenish the stack pools in case no space is left
- * (allocates using GFP flags of @alloc_flags). If @can_alloc is %false, avoids
- * any allocations and fails if no space is left to store the stack trace.
- *
- * If the provided stack trace comes from the interrupt context, only the part
- * up to the interrupt entry is saved.
