With this, it's consistently counterpart of the comments for rmi_rtt_data_map().

It would be worthwhile to mention 'in protect IPA' where the mappings are
teared down. Besides, 'for the target Realm' can be dropped from the comments
for @rd.

The nested if statements can be avoided if we have:

	if (ret != RMI_SUCCESS)
		return ret;

	if (out_top)
		*out_top = regs.a1;
	if (out_range)
		*out_range = regs.a2;
	if (out_count)
		*out_count = regs.a3;

	return RMI_SUCCESS;

We needn't to have 'to be used. This comment applies to other helpers
like rmi_realm_terminate(), rmi_realm_destroy(), rmi_rec_create(),
rmi_rec_destroy() where a preallocated SRO context is needed.
