seqlock: kernel-doc: Specify when preemption is automatically altered

Browse source 
The kernel-doc annotations for sequence counters write side functions
are incomplete: they do not specify when preemption is automatically
disabled and re-enabled.

This has confused a number of call-site developers. Fix it.
