Muchun Song 27faca83a7 mm: memcontrol: fix kernel stack account 
For simplification commit 991e767385 ("mm: memcontrol: account kernel
stack per node") changed the per zone vmalloc backed stack pages
accounting to per node.

By doing that we have lost a certain precision because those pages might
live in different NUMA nodes.  In the end NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB exported to
the userspace might be over estimated on some nodes while underestimated
on others.  But this is not a real world problem, just a problem found
by reading the code.  So there is no actual data to showing how much
impact it has on users.

This doesn't impose any real problem to correctnes of the kernel
behavior as the counter is not used for any internal processing but it
can cause some confusion to the userspace.

Address the problem by accounting each vmalloc backing page to its own
node.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
