Thanks!

I suck at naming things. If you think "reclaimed_non_lru" is better,
then we can do that. FWIW mm_account_reclaimed_pages() was taken from
a suggestion from Dave Chinner. My initial version had a terrible
name: report_freed_pages(), so I am happy with whatever you see fit.

Should I re-spin for this or can we change it in place?
