4d855643d1 Clarify what the lockfunc is used for. When it will be called and
when it won't be called.  The old wording was correct, but not
sufficiently specific to understand when and how it would be called.
The new wording describes the current implementation's usage (which
should be updated if other appropriate times are decided upon),
specifically that it is called only when the load operation is
deferred to keep the locking state consistent.  When the operation
isn't deferred, the calling routine is assumed to have a coherent
locking world.

95929b661e Even in a 80 column, fixed point font, there's plenty of room for all
the arguments to bus_dmamap_load, so don't use '...' but list the
actual args.  '...' usually means a variable number of args (cf
printf(3)), but bus_dmamap_load takes a fixed number of arguments.

cbfef69c64 In the SYNOPSIS section, move the bus_dmamem_alloc function prototype
to just before bus_dmamem_free, which is (a) more logical; (b) likely
what was originally intended and (c) matches the order in the NAME and
FUNCTIONS sections.

b9b855dd65 - Document the fact that you can specify several DMA operations to
bus_dmamap_sync() by OR'ing them together.
- Don't document what BUS_DMASYNC_PREREAD|BUS_DMASYNC_PREWRITE and
  BUS_DMASYNC_POSTREAD|BUS_DMASYNC_POSTWRITE is supposed to do when
  passed to bus_dmamap_sync().  There are other possible combinations
  and the reader just needs to know what the individual flags do and
  that he can combine different DMA operations.
- Use .An when listing authors.
