Subject: [PATCH v2 04/13] mm: Track NR_KERNEL_STACK in KiB instead of number of stacks

Currently, NR_KERNEL_STACK tracks the number of kernel stacks in a
zone.  This only makes sense if each kernel stack exists entirely in
one zone, and allowing vmapped stacks could break this assumption.

Since frv has THREAD_SIZE < PAGE_SIZE, we need to track kernel stack
allocations in a unit that divides both THREAD_SIZE and PAGE_SIZE on
all architectures.  Keep it simple and use KiB.
