mm: account PMD tables like PTE tables
We account the PTE level of the page tables to the process in order to make smarter OOM decisions and help diagnose why memory is fragmented. For these same reasons, we should account pages allocated for PMDs. With larger process address spaces and ASLR, the number of PMDs in use is higher than it used to be so the inaccuracy is starting to matter.
