doc: No longer allowed to use rcu_dereference on non-pointers
There are too many ways for the compiler to optimize (that is, break) dependencies carried via integer values, so it is now permissible to carry dependencies only via pointers. This commit catches up some of the documentation on this point. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
