mm: report per-page metadata information

[ Upstream commit 15995a35247442aefa0ffe36a6dad51cb46b0918 ]

Today, we do not have any observability of per-page metadata and how much
it takes away from the machine capacity.  Thus, we want to describe the
amount of memory that is going towards per-page metadata, which can vary
depending on build configuration, machine architecture, and system use.

This patch adds 2 fields to /proc/vmstat that can used as shown below:

Accounting per-page metadata allocated by boot-allocator:
	/proc/vmstat:nr_memmap_boot * PAGE_SIZE

Accounting per-page metadata allocated by buddy-allocator:
	/proc/vmstat:nr_memmap * PAGE_SIZE

Accounting total Perpage metadata allocated on the machine:
	(/proc/vmstat:nr_memmap_boot +
	 /proc/vmstat:nr_memmap) * PAGE_SIZE

Utility for userspace:

Observability: Describe the amount of memory overhead that is going to
per-page metadata on the system at any given time since this overhead is
not currently observable.

Debugging: Tracking the changes or absolute value in struct pages can help
detect anomalies as they can be correlated with other metrics in the
machine (e.g., memtotal, number of huge pages, etc).

page_ext overheads: Some kernel features such as page_owner
page_table_check that use page_ext can be optionally enabled via kernel
parameters.  Having the total per-page metadata information helps users
precisely measure impact.  Furthermore, page-metadata metrics will reflect
the amount of struct pages reliquished (or overhead reduced) when
hugetlbfs pages are reserved which will vary depending on whether hugetlb
vmemmap optimization is enabled or not.
