scsi: core: Fix the scsi_set_resid() documentation 

Because scsi_finish_command() subtracts the residual from the buffer
length, residual overflows must not be reported. Reflect this in the SCSI
documentation. See also commit 9237f04e12 ("scsi: core: Fix
scsi_get/set_resid() interface")

- an LLD should set this unsigned integer to the requested
transfer length (i.e. 'request_bufflen') less the number
of bytes that are actually transferred. 'resid' is
preset to 0 so an LLD can ignore it if it cannot detect
underruns (overruns should be rare). If possible an LLD
underruns (overruns should not be reported). An LLD
should set 'resid' prior to invoking 'done'. The most
interesting case is data transfers from a SCSI target
device (e.g. READs) that underrun.
