This changelog is inaccurate.

dump_tasks() is actually useful as it currently stands; there are things 
that you may add or remove but saying that it is "no longer useful" is an 
exaggeration.

Showing mm->total_vm is still interesting to know what the old heuristic 
would have used rather than the new heuristic, I'd prefer if we kept it.

I'd prefer if ptes were shown independently from rss instead of adding it 
to the thread's true rss usage and representing it as such.

I think the cpu should also be removed.

For the next version, could you show the old output and comparsion to new 
output in the changelog?
