Subject: [PATCH] Show slab memory usage on OOM and SysRq-M (v3)

The out_of_memory() function and SysRq-M handler call
show_mem() to show the current memory usage state.

This is also helpful to see which slabs are the largest
in the system.

Thanks Pekka for good idea of how to make it better.

The nr_pages is stored on kmem_list3 because:

1. as Eric pointed out, we do not want to defeat 
   NUMA optimizations;
2. we do not need for additional LOCK-ed operation on
   altering this field - l3->list_lock is already taken
   where needed.

Made naming more descriptive according to Dave.
