In the shrink_folio_list() function, demote_folio_list() can be called
2 times. Currently stat->nr_demoted will only store the last nr_demoted(
the later nr_demoted is always zero, the former nr_demoted will get lost),
as a result number of demoted pages is not accurate.

Accumulate the nr_demoted count across multiple calls to
demote_folio_list(), ensuring accurate reporting of demotion statistics.

Kaiyang, I removed you ACKED tag for V1, please review again
Andrew, Please drop the v1 from the mm-hotfixs-unstable if V2 is
accepted.

V2:
   Introudce a local nr_demoted to fix it's counted 2 times by nr_reclaimed wrongly.

This patch looks good to me.

I tested this patch with the stat fix [1] I could see the demotion counts are coming correctly.

pgdemote_kswapd 60517
pgdemote_direct 6737
pgdemote_khugepaged 0
