I think we discussed exposing this in /proc/meminfo. There, it would be
much easier to simply have a global variable, print it, and be done with
it. Like we do with TotalCma.
For /proc/vmstat that's likely the right approach what you have here.
vmstat has the following:
-------------------------
NR_VM_ZONE_STAT_ITEMS: per-zone stats
NR_VM_NUMA_EVENT_ITEMS: per-numa events
NR_VM_NODE_STAT_ITEMS: per-numa stats
NR_VM_WRITEBACK_STAT_ITEMS: system-wide background-writeback and
dirty-throttling tresholds.
NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS: system-wide events
-------------------------
Rename NR_VM_WRITEBACK_STAT_ITEMS to NR_VM_STAT_ITEMS, to track the
system-wide stats, we are going to add per-page metadata stats to this
category in the next patch.
Also delete unused writeback_stat_name() function.
