Subject: PCI/P2PDMA: Update pci_p2pdma_distance_many() documentation
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc1
Git-commit: 27235b15e4197b3a1014cf0ca0b08dbbf61a692b
References: jsc#SLE-8449

The comment describing pci_p2pdma_distance_many() still referred to
the devices being behind the same root port. This no longer applies
so reword the documentation.
