Subject: [PATCHv9 04/14] mm/page_alloc: Add sysfs handle to accept accept_memory

Write amount of memory to accept into the new sysfs handle
/sys/kernel/mm/page_alloc/accept_memory.

Write 'all' to the handle to accept all memory in the system.

It can be used to implement background memory accepting from userspace.
It is also useful for debugging.
