Subject[proc/vmstat]set nr_kernel_stack in vmstat to nr_threads
nr_kernel_stack in /proc/vmstat is very confusing, its value is now the same as KernelStack in /proc/meminfo,
indicating kernel stack memory usage in KB. It would be helpful to expose a stat about the number of kernel thread,
(the sysinfo syscall return a proc number with type U16, overflow would happen). This patch set nr_kernel_stack in /proc/vmstat
to a value defined by a global variable nr_threads.
