Subject: [PATCH v5 0/3] Fixes for memmap accounting

Memmap accounting provides us with observability of how much memory is
used for per-page metadata: i.e. "struct page"'s and "struct page_ext".
It also provides with information of how much was allocated using
boot allocator (i.e. not part of MemTotal), and how much was allocated
using buddy allocated (i.e. part of MemTotal).

This small series fixes a few problems that were discovered with the
original patch.

Changes:
- addressed a few nits from David Hildenbrand
- added Acks, and Tested by's

v4

  mm: don't account memmap on failure
  mm: add system wide stats items category
  mm: don't account memmap per-node
