This adds four new knobs for the KSM advisor to influence its behaviour.

The knobs are:
- advisor_mode:
     none:      no advisor (default)
     scan-time: scan time advisor
- advisor_max_cpu: 70 (default, cpu usage percent)
- advisor_min_pages: 500 (default)
- advisor_max_pages: 30000 (default)
- advisor_target_scan_time: 200 (default in seconds)

The new values will take effect on the next scan round.

Is the "init_advisor()" really required?

That function should go to this patch.
