mm: vmstat: add isolate pages
If the system is running a heavy load of processes then concurrent reclaim
can isolate a large number of pages from the LRU. /proc/vmstat and the
output generated for an OOM do not show how many pages were isolated.
This has been observed during process fork bomb testing (mstctl11 in LTP).
This patch shows the information about isolated pages.
Reproduced via:
-----------------------
% ./hackbench 140 process 1000
=> OOM occur
