[ Upstream commit ebaeab2fe87987cef28eb5ab174c42cd28594387 ]

Idle page tracking can also be used for process address space, not only
file mappings.

Without this change, using with '-i' option for process address space
encounters below errors reported.

  $ sudo ./page-types -p $(pidof bash) -i
  mark page idle: Bad file descriptor
  mark page idle: Bad file descriptor
  mark page idle: Bad file descriptor

For arm64 MTE support it is necessary to be able to mark pages that
contain user space visible tags that will need to be saved/restored e.g.
when swapped out.

To support this add a new arch specific flag (PG_arch_2). This flag is
only available on 64-bit architectures due to the limited number of
spare page flags on the 32-bit ones.

To see a sorted result from page_owner, there must be a tiresome
preprocessing step before running page_owner_sort.  This patch simply
filters out lines which start with "PFN" while reading the page owner
report.

Commit 7ed1c1901fe5 ("tools: fix cross-compile var clobbering") moved
the setup of the CC variable to tools/scripts/Makefile.include to make
the behavior consistent across all the tools Makefiles.

As the vm tools missed the include we end up with the wrong CC in a
cross-compiling evironment.

The sysfs file name for enabling sanity checking is called
'sanity_checks' and not 'sanity'.

The name of the file has never changed since the introduction of the
slub allocator.  Obviously, most people turn the checks on via the
command line option and not during runtime using slabinfo.

Passing more than one sorting option has undefined behaviour.

Add an explicit statement as such to the help menu, this also has the
advantage of highlighting all the sorting options.

We would like to get a better view of the level of fragmentation within
the SLUB allocator.  Total number of partial slabs is an indicator of
fragmentation.

Add a command line option (-P | --partial) to sort the slab list by total
number of partial slabs.

We would like to see how fragmented the SLUB allocator is, one window into
fragmentation is the total number of partial slabs.

Currently `slabinfo -X` shows slabs sorted by loss and by size.  We can
use this option to also show slabs sorted by number of partial slabs.

Option '-X' can be used in conjunction with '-N' to control the number of
slabs shown e.g.  list of top 5 slabs:

	slabinfo -X -N5

Add list of slabs ordered by number of partial slabs to output of
`slabinfo -X`.

During recent discussion on LKML over SLAB vs SLUB it was suggested by
Jesper that it would be nice to have a tool to view the current
fragmentation of the slab allocators.  CC list for this set is taken
from that thread.

For SLUB we have all the information for this already exposed by the
kernel and also we have a userspace tool for displaying this info:

	tools/vm/slabinfo.c

Extend slabinfo to improve the fragmentation information by enabling
sorting of caches by number of partial slabs.

Also add cache list sorted in this manner to the output of `slabinfo -X`.

This patch (of 4):

get_opt() has a spurious character within the option string.  Remove it
and reorder the options in alphabetic order so that it is easier to keep
the options correct.  Use the same ordering for command help output and
long option handling code.
