[patch 1/3] vmstat: Make pageset processing optional in refresh_cpu_vm_stats

[Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: vmstat_do_pageset_parameter --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2579 bytes --]

Add a parameter to refresh_cpu_vm_stats() to make pageset expiration
optional. Flushing the pagesets is performed by the page allocator
and thus processing of pagesets may not be wanted when just intending
to fold the differentials.
