[PATCH 1/2] mm/slob: Mark zone page state to get slab usage at /proc/meminfo

[Ezequiel Garcia]

On page allocations, SLAB and SLUB modify zone page state counters
NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE or NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE.
This allows to obtain slab usage information at /proc/meminfo.

Without this patch, /proc/meminfo will show zero Slab usage for SLOB.

Since SLOB discards SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT flag, we always use
NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE zone state item.
