From: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently looking at /proc/<pid>/status or statm, there is no way to distinguish shmem pages from pages mapped to a regular file (shmem pages are mapped to /dev/zero), even though their implication in actual memory use is quite different. This patch adds MM_SHMEMPAGES counter to mm_rss_stat to account for shmem pages instead of MM_FILEPAGES.

I prefer to keep that counter unconditionally: kernel has MM_SWAPENTS even without CONFIG_SWAP.
