Hello Shaun,

If you are going to fix the comments you should get both the beginning
and the end.
More comments inline.

Fix the beginning too, as mentioned above.

Either fix the beginning... or better yet, get rid of the useless
(obvious) second line so it can be a single line comment.

Fix the beginning of this comment as well.
Also, from "If the page is already in kernel -addressible memory..."
on is just a description of what kmap() does.
I'd get rid of those lines.

Fix the beginning of this comment.

I'd get rid of this comment. It parrots what the code does, but does not
add any information.

This comment describes something that does not
happen in this function. Perhaps it did at one point.
Regardless, It should be removed.
