[RFC PATCH 12/14] mm/slub: introduce the deallocated_pages sysfs attribute

[Matteo Rizzo]

From: Jann Horn <jannh@xxxxxxxxxx>

When SLAB_VIRTUAL is enabled this new sysfs attribute tracks the number
of slab pages whose physical memory has been reclaimed but whose virtual
memory is still allocated to a kmem_cache.
