[PATCH v3 2/5] kfence: count unexpectedly skipped allocations

[Marco Elver]

Maintain a counter to count allocations that are skipped due to being
incompatible (oversized, incompatible gfp flags) or no capacity.

This is to compute the fraction of allocations that could not be
serviced by KFENCE, which we expect to be rare.

v2:
* Do not count deadlock-avoidance skips.
