In order to observe the behavior of the region-aware buddy allocator, modify
vmstat.c to also print memory region related statistics. In particular, enable
memory region-related info in /proc/zoneinfo and /proc/buddyinfo, since they
would help us to atleast (roughly) see how the new buddy allocator is
performing.

For now, the region statistics correspond to the zone memory regions and not
the (absolute) node memory regions, and some of the statistics (especially the
no. of present pages) might not be very accurate. But since we account for
and print the free page statistics for every zone memory region accurately, we
should be able to observe the new page allocator behavior to a reasonable
degree of accuracy.
