[PATCH 4/4] mm: /proc//sys/vm/stat_refresh stop checking monotonic numa stats

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Thu Feb 25 2021 - 18:16:33 EST


All of the VM NUMA stats are event counts, incremented never decremented:
it is not very useful for vmstat_refresh() to check them throughout their
first aeon, then warn on them throughout their next.
