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")
