Dan Williams d5934e7631 cleanup: Add usage and style documentation
When proposing that PCI grow some new cleanup helpers for pci_dev_put()
and pci_dev_{lock,unlock} [1], Bjorn had some fundamental questions
about expectations and best practices. Upon reviewing an updated
changelog with those details he recommended adding them to documentation
in the header file itself.

Add that documentation and link it into the rendering for
Documentation/core-api/.
