[PATCH] fix hrtimers documentation

[Satoru Takeuchi <takeuchi_satoru@jp.fujitsu.com>]

Fix hrtimers documentation.

- The word `patch' is used to indicate hrtimers subsystem implementation.
  However this subsystem has already been in ustream kernel, so convert
  them into appropriate phrases.
- Some minor cleanups.
