[RFC 6/6] Make nr_pagecache a per zone counter

[Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>]

The nr_page_table_pages counter is currently implemented as a counter
split per cpu. nr_page_table_pages has therefore currently meaning as a
counter of the page table pages in the system as a whole.

This patch switches the counter to use a zone based couter. It is then
possible to determine how many pages in a zone are used for page tables.
