As reclaim is now node-based, it follows that page write activity
due to page reclaim should also be accounted for on the node. For
consistency, also account page writes and page dirtying on a per-node
basis.
After this patch, there are a few remaining zone counters that may
appear strange but are fine. NUMA stats are still per-zone as this is a
user-space interface that tools consume. NR_MLOCK, NR_SLAB_*, NR_PAGETABLE,
NR_KERNEL_STACK and NR_BOUNCE are all allocations that potentially pin
low memory and cannot trivially be reclaimed on demand. This information
is still useful for debugging a page allocation failure warning.
