buffer: fix __bread and __bread_gfp kernel-doc

The extra indentation confused the kernel-doc parser, so remove it.  Fix
some other wording while I'm here, and advise the user they need to call
brelse() on this buffer.

__bread_gfp() isn't used directly by filesystems, but the other wrappers
for it don't have documentation, so document it accordingly.
