ksm: pages_unshared and pages_volatile
The pages_shared and pages_sharing counts give a good picture of how
successful KSM is at sharing; but no clue to how much wasted work it's
doing to get there. Add pages_unshared (count of unique pages waiting
in the unstable tree, hoping to find a mate) and pages_volatile.
pages_volatile is harder to define. It includes those pages changing
too fast to get into the unstable tree, but also whatever other edge
conditions prevent a page getting into the trees: a high value may
deserve investigation. Don't try to calculate it from the various
conditions: it's the total of rmap_items less those accounted for.
Also show full_scans: the number of completed scans of everything
registered in the mm list.
The locking for all these counts is simply ksm_thread_mutex.
