mm: document highmem_is_dirtyable sysctl
It seems that there are still people using 32b kernels which a lot of memory and the IO tend to suck a lot for them by default. Mostly because writers are throttled too when the lowmem is used. We have highmem_is_dirtyable to work around that issue but it seems we never bothered to document it. Let's do it now, finally.
