Here, we have 82 pages reclaimable, which is 328kB, and 843 unreclaimable
which is 3372kB, which is a total of 925 pages.

Which agrees here.

but not here... this is an interesting difference, because in the ARM
version of show_mem(), we count the actual number of pages where
PageSlab() returns true. Can slab pages also be reserved pages or
swap cache pages? I thought they were exclusive of those. So, the
question comes... why the difference in accounting, and which one is
correct.

Maybe there's a bug in the accounting somewhere...

So I think we're not ready for this patch to be merged yet.
