The vmstat NR_KERNEL_MISC_RECLAIMABLE counter is for kernel non-slab
allocations that can be reclaimed via shrinker. In /proc/meminfo, we can show
the sum of all reclaimable kernel allocations (including slab) as
"KReclaimable". Add the same counter also to per-node meminfo under /sys
With this counter, users will have more complete information about
kernel memory usage. Non-slab reclaimable pages (currently just the ION
allocator) will not be missing from /proc/meminfo, making users wonder
where part of their memory went. More precisely, they already appear in
MemAvailable, but without the new counter, it's not obvious why the
value in MemAvailable doesn't fully correspond with the sum of other
counters participating in it.
