mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting
Currently looking at /proc/<pid>/status or statm, there is no way to distinguish shmem pages from pages mapped to a regular file (shmem pages are mapped to /dev/zero), even though their implication in actual memory use is quite different. The internal accounting currently counts shmem pages together with regular files. As a preparation to extend the userspace interfaces, this patch adds MM_SHMEMPAGES counter to mm_rss_stat to account for shmem pages separately from MM_FILEPAGES. The next patch will expose it to userspace - this patch doesn't change the exported values yet, by adding up MM_SHMEMPAGES to MM_FILEPAGES at places where MM_FILEPAGES was used before. The only user-visible change after this patch is the OOM killer message that separates the reported "shmem-rss" from "file-rss".
