kfifo: replace the old non generic API

Simply replace the whole kfifo.c and kfifo.h files with the new generic
version and fix the kerneldoc API template file.

- * How to porting drivers to the new generic FIFO API:
- *
- * - Modify the declaration of the "struct kfifo *" object into a
- *   in-place "struct kfifo" object
- * - Init the in-place object with kfifo_alloc() or kfifo_init()
- *   Note: The address of the in-place "struct kfifo" object must be
- *   passed as the first argument to this functions
- * - Replace the use of __kfifo_put into kfifo_in and __kfifo_get
- *   into kfifo_out
- * - Replace the use of kfifo_put into kfifo_in_spinlocked and kfifo_get
- *   into kfifo_out_spinlocked
- *   Note: the spinlock pointer formerly passed to kfifo_init/kfifo_alloc
- *   must be passed now to the kfifo_in_spinlocked and kfifo_out_spinlocked
- *   as the last parameter
- * - The formerly __kfifo_* functions are renamed into kfifo_*
- */
-
-/*
- * Note about locking : There is no locking required until only * one reader
- * and one writer is using the fifo and no kfifo_reset() will be * called
- *  kfifo_reset_out() can be safely used, until it will be only called
- * in the reader thread.
- *  For multiple writer and one reader there is only a need to lock the writer.
- * And vice versa for only one writer and multiple reader there is only a need
- * to lock the reader.
