ABI: sysfs-bus-pci: add documentation for p2pmem allocate

Browse Source 
Add documentation for the p2pmem/allocate binary file which allows
for allocating p2pmem buffers in userspace for passing to drivers
that support them. (Currently only O_DIRECT to NVMe devices.)

Description:
This file allows mapping p2pmem into userspace. For each
mmap() call on this file, the kernel will allocate a chunk
of Peer-to-Peer memory for use in Peer-to-Peer transactions.
This memory can be used in O_DIRECT calls to NVMe backed
files for Peer-to-Peer copies.
