[PATCH v5 1/4] mm: add NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE to count secondary page table uses.

Mon Jun 6 15:20:55 PDT 2022
Add NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE stat to count secondary page table uses, e.g.
KVM mmu. This provides more insights on the kernel memory used
by a workload.
This stat will be used by subsequent patches to count KVM mmu
memory usage.
