It's not the greatest, but it's nothing new. All the node stats we
have now used to be in the zone, i.e. the then bigger boot_pageset,
before we moved them to the node level. It just re-adds static boot
time space for them now.

Of course, if somebody has an idea on how to elegantly reuse that
memory after boot, that'd be cool. But we've lived with that footprint
for the longest time, so I don't think it's a showstopper.
