[PATCH v2] doc: add information to update dma entry limit

[Nipun Gupta <nipun.gupta@amd.com>]

VFIO module provides configurable dma_entry_limit
parameter to store the DMA entries. By default this
is 64K and if we are using --no-huge, we shall need
to increase the value of dma_entry_limit. Add
commands in linux_gsg document to change the
dma_entry_limit.

- updated param 'no-huge' to '--no-huge' in documentation

 When application is out of DMA entries, these limits need to be adjusted to
 increase the allowed limit.
 
+When ``--no-huge`` parameter is used, the page size used is of smaller size of
+``4K`` or ``64K`` and we shall need to increase ``dma_entry_limit``.

+Alternatively, one can also change this value in an already loaded kernel module:
