    x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state of direct mapping v4 · ce0c0e50
    Andi Kleen 提交于
    Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
    /proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
    memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
    outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
    kernel will run slower.
    
    This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
    many are split.
    
    Useful for general insight into the kernel.
    
    v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race.
        32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.
        Fix some typos
    v3: Rename dpages_cnt
        Add CONFIG ifdef for count update as requested by tglx
