lib/stackdepot: various comments clean-ups

Clean up comments in include/linux/stackdepot.h and lib/stackdepot.c:

1. Rework the initialization comment in stackdepot.h.
2. Rework the header comment in stackdepot.c.
3. Various clean-ups for other comments.

Also adjust whitespaces for find_stack and depot_alloc_stack call sites.

No functional changes.

* Another alternative is to call stack_depot_request_early_init(), when the

* parameters, which precedes the enablement point in mm_init().
* 2. Calling stack_depot_request_early_init() during early boot, before
* stack_depot_early_init() in mm_init() completes. For example, this can
* be done when evaluating kernel boot parameters.

/*
* Generic stack depot for storing stack traces.
* Stack depot - a stack trace storage that avoids duplication.
*
* Some debugging tools need to save stack traces of certain events which can
* be later presented to the user. For example, KASAN needs to safe alloc and
* free stacks for each object, but storing two stack traces per object
* requires too much memory (e.g. SLUB_DEBUG needs 256 bytes per object for
* that).
* Stack depot is intended to be used by subsystems that need to store and
* later retrieve many potentially duplicated stack traces without wasting
* memory.
*
* Instead, stack depot maintains a hashtable of unique stacktraces. Since alloc
* and free stacks repeat a lot, we save about 100x space.
* Stacks are never removed from depot, so we store them contiguously one after
* another in a contiguous memory allocation.

* Internally, stack depot maintains a hash table of unique stacktraces. The
* stack traces themselves are stored contiguously one after another in a set
* of separate page allocations.
