Barry Song 4c6cd03ed8 mm/gup_benchmark: update the documentation in Kconfig
In the beginning, mm/gup_benchmark.c supported get_user_pages_fast() only,
but right now, it supports the benchmarking of a couple of
get_user_pages() related calls like:

* get_user_pages_fast()
* get_user_pages()
* pin_user_pages_fast()
* pin_user_pages()

The documentation is confusing and needs update.

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 Restructured Text 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.
