X86 has information in /proc/meminfo showing the use of large mappings
for the kernel direct map. This has now also become important for
ARM since the kernel default CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED
forces 4K PTE use for the direct map and users may not be aware
of the performance impact of the increased TLB use etc.
The output of /proc/meminfo on ARM64 is then after this patch:

It seems somewhat suspect that these counts only ever increase. It's not
often that we change or remove parts of the linear map, but it certainly
can happen.
Thanks,
Robin.
