- Readjust headings - we lost one level through the extraction into a
separate .rst file.
- Merge helper reference sections with the helper documentation - that
split was just an artifact of the docbook toolchain sucking at too
deep nesting levels. No such problems with sphinx.
- Move the cma helpers in with the gem documentation, since they're
helpers to implement gem using CMA/dma memory as a backend.
