[PATCH 3/4][resend] Show kernel stack usage in /proc/meminfo and OOM log output

From: KOSAKI Motohiro
Date: Mon Jul 13 2009 - 02:02:38 EST


ChangeLog
Since v1
- Rewrote the descriptin (Thanks Christoph!)

=====================
Subject: [PATCH] Show kernel stack usage in /proc/meminfo and OOM log output

The amount of memory allocated to kernel stacks can become significant and
cause OOM conditions. However, we do not display the amount of memory
consumed by stacks.

Add code to display the amount of memory used for stacks in /proc/meminfo.
