docs/core-api: split memory management API to a separate file
This is basically copy-paste of the memory management section from kernel-api.rst with some minor adjustments: * The "User Space Memory Access" is moved to the beginning * The get_user_pages_fast reference is now a part of "User Space Memory Access" * And, of course, headings are adjusted with section being promoted to chapters Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1532626360-16650-6-git-send-email-rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
