[RFC][PATCH 6/9] mm/vmscan: add page demotion counter

[Dave Hansen]

From: Yang Shi <yang.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Account the number of demoted pages into reclaim_state->nr_demoted.

Add pgdemote_kswapd and pgdemote_direct VM counters showed in
/proc/vmstat.

[ daveh:
   - __count_vm_events() a bit, and made them look at the THP
     size directly rather than getting data from migrate_pages()
]
