printk: nbcon: Clarify rules of the owner/waiter matching
The functions nbcon_owner_matches() and nbcon_waiter_matches() use a minimal set of data to determine if a context matches. The existing kerneldoc and comments were not clear enough and caused the printk folks to re-prove that the functions are indeed reliable in all cases. Update and expand the explanations so that it is clear that the implementations are sufficient for all cases.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
