Changes in v2:
- Add Fixes and Acked-by tags from David Hildenbrand, thanks!
- Inline atomic_long_read(&ksm_zero_pages), per David Hildenbrand.
- Don't include the last two optimization patches to keep this fix
  simple.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240508-b4-ksm-counters-v1-0-e2a9b13f70c5@linux.dev

We encounter some abnormal ksm_pages_scanned and ksm_zero_pages during
some random tests.

1. ksm_pages_scanned unchanged even ksmd scanning has progress.
2. ksm_zero_pages maybe -1 in some rare cases.

Thanks for review and comments!
