[RFC 2/2] Page order diagnostics

[Christoph Lameter <cl-vYTEC60ixJUAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: order_stats --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5595 bytes --]

It is beneficial to know about the contiguous memory segments
available on a system and the number of allocations failing
for each page order.

This patch adds details per order statistics to /proc/meminfo
so the current memory use can be determined.

Also adds counters to /proc/vmstat to show allocation
failures for each page order.
