Stefan Roesch d21077fbc2 mm: add new KSM process and sysfs knobs
This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric
knobs to ksm_stat.

1) expose general_profit metric

   The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this
   metric is not calculated.  In addition the formula depends on the size
   of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an
   administrator to make the calculation.  Adding the metric for a better
   user experience.

2) document general_profit sysfs knob

3) calculate ksm process profit metric

   The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to
   calculate it.  This adds the calculation of the metric.

4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat

   This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.
   The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit
   metric, however it does not calculate it.  In addition the formula
   depends on the size of internal structures.  So it makes sense to
   expose it.

5) document new procfs ksm knobs
