Subject: mm: fix vmstat after removing NR_BOUNCE
Date: Thu, 29 May 2025 13:38:32 +0300
Hongyu noticed that the nr_unaccepted counter kept growing even in the
absence of unaccepted memory on the machine.
This happens due to a commit that removed NR_BOUNCE: it removed the
counter from the enum zone_stat_item, but left it in the vmstat_text
array.
As a result, all counters below nr_bounce in /proc/vmstat are shifted by
one line, causing the numa_hit counter to be labeled as nr_unaccepted.
To fix this issue, remove nr_bounce from the vmstat_text array.
