kmap_high is defined as EXPORT_SYMBOL, and cannot be called from atomic
context. Add might_sleep check is necessary.

No.  Nobody should be calling kmap_high() directly.  There's already a
might_sleep() in kmap().  No need to add one in kmap_high().

To avoid anyone calls kmap_high directly, add function description "Don't
use kmap_high directly, if necessary, please use kmap"
