mm/ksm.c: fix inconsistent accounting of zero pages

When using KSM with use_zero_pages, we replace anonymous pages
containing only zeroes with actual zero pages, which are not anonymous.
We need to do proper accounting of the mm counters, otherwise we will
get wrong values in /proc and a BUG message in dmesg when tearing down
the mm.
