Christoph Lameter 0eb77e9880 vmstat: make vmstat_updater deferrable again and shut down on idle
Currently the vmstat updater is not deferrable as a result of commit
ba4877b9ca ("vmstat: do not use deferrable delayed work for
vmstat_update").  This in turn can cause multiple interruptions of the
applications because the vmstat updater may run at

Make vmstate_update deferrable again and provide a function that folds
the differentials when the processor is going to idle mode thus
addressing the issue of the above commit in a clean way.

Note that the shepherd thread will continue scanning the differentials
from another processor and will reenable the vmstat workers if it
detects any changes.

Fixes: ba4877b9ca ("vmstat: do not use deferrable delayed work for vmstat_update")
