Add kernel-doc comments to document the return value semantics of
RPC functions in r535/rpc.c. This clarifies which functions can return
NULL, error pointers, or both, helping maintainers validate future
changes.

Return value analysis:
- r535_gsp_msgq_peek(): Never returns NULL
- r535_gsp_msgq_recv_one_elem(): Never returns NULL
- r535_gsp_msgq_recv(): CAN return NULL (when RPC length invalid)
- r535_gsp_msg_recv(): CAN return NULL (queue drained/no matching message)
- r535_gsp_rpc_get(): Never returns NULL
- r535_gsp_rpc_handle_reply(): CAN return NULL (NOWAIT/NOSEQ policies)
- r535_gsp_rpc_send(): CAN return NULL (via handle_reply)
- r535_gsp_rpc_push(): CAN return NULL (via handle_reply)
