From: Ridong Chen <redacted>

The number of pages of a given type in a generation is computed by
summing lrugen->nr_pages[gen][type][] over all zones and clamping each
per-zone counter to >= 0, since the counters are updated locklessly and
can transiently go negative. This loop is open-coded in
lruvec_evictable_size() and in the debugfs lru_gen output.

Add lruvec_gen_size() to compute it from a seq, and convert both users.
Put it in mm/vmscan.h so that the vmscan tracepoints, which include that
header, can use it as well.
An upcoming tracepoint and the MGLRU swappiness rework will also use it.

No functional change.
