[PATCH] drm/vram-helper: fix typos in vram helper doc

Hi

thanks for the fix. A few things could be improved.

The subject line should say 'fix function names' instead of 'fix typos'. 
The patch also deserves at least a minimal description if the change. 
Something like 'Refer to drmm_vram_helper_init() instead of the 
non-existent drmm_vram_helper_alloc_mm().' If someone later searches the 
git history for such changes, it's helpful to have the function names 
mentioned.

Best regards
Thomas
