dma-buf: Documentation update for Kconfig select
As per Linus' comment, dma-buf Kconfig entry shouldn't have an option text, but should be selected by the subsystems that use it. Add this information in the documentation as well. Signed-off-by: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

+Miscellaneous notes:
+- Any exporters or users of the dma-buf buffer sharing framework must have
