Re: [PATCH v7 4/4] KVM: arm64/mmu: count KVM s2 mmu usage in secondary pagetable stats

Count the pages used by KVM in arm64 for stage2 mmu in memory stats
under secondary pagetable stats (e.g. "SecPageTables" in /proc/meminfo)
to give better visibility into the memory consumption of KVM mmu in a
similar way to how normal user page tables are accounted.

I see that you are not including the memory reserved for the host stage2 
table when using protected KVM. Is this something worth adding? (See 
arch/arm64/kvm/pkvm.c:kvm_hyp_reserve()).

This reservation is done pretty early on in bootmem_init() so not sure 
if this could cause some init ordering issues that might be tricky to 
solve though.

Thanks,
Ryan
