Dave Martin b745fdeff5 docs/core-api: memory-allocation: GFP_NOWAIT doesn't need __GFP_NOWARN 
Since v6.8 the definition of GFP_NOWAIT has implied __GFP_NOWARN,
so it is now redundant to add this flag explicitly.

Update the docs to match, and emphasise the need for a fallback
when using GFP_NOWAIT.

Fixes: 16f5dfbc85 ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT")

README 

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.
