From: Wang Sheng-Hui <shhuiw@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: update the description for vm_total_pages
vm_total_pages is calculated by nr_free_pagecache_pages(), which counts
the number of pages which are beyond the high watermark within all zones.
So vm_total_pages is not equal to total number of pages which the VM
controls.
