The nr_dirty_[background_]threshold fields are misplaced before the
numa_* fields, and users will read strange values.

This is the right order. Before patch, nr_dirty_background_threshold
will read as 0 (the value from numa_miss).

	numa_hit 128501
	numa_miss 0
	numa_foreign 0
	numa_interleave 7388
	numa_local 128501
	numa_other 0
	nr_dirty_threshold 144291
	nr_dirty_background_threshold 72145
