Looks good, I've merged most of it.  One aspect I'm unsure about
is the "protected" value(s).  The patch picks out the fourth proc
zoneinfo field from that line - why that one?  Looking inside the
kernel code (mm/vmstat.c::zoneinfo_show_print)

        seq_printf(m,
                   "\n        protection: (%ld",
                   zone->lowmem_reserve[0]);
        for (i = 1; i < ARRAY_SIZE(zone->lowmem_reserve); i++)
                seq_printf(m, ", %ld", zone->lowmem_reserve[i]);

and the definition of the struct zone lowmem_reserve array (from
include/linux/mmzone.h) - I think that this metric should possibly
be using a separate indom to present all of these lowmem_reserve'd
values?

(so, I'll leave the mem.zoneinfo.protection metric out for now -
until we can resolve that part.  I've also updated test qa/821.)

cheers.
