mm/memtest: add results of early memtest to /proc/meminfo

Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg.

When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption.  You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time.  In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.

In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long.  So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.

This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

Percpu
Memory allocated to the percpu allocator used to back percpu
allocations. This stat excludes the cost of metadata.
EarlyMemtestBad
The amount of RAM/memory in kB, that was identified as corrupted
by early memtest. If memtest was not run, this field will not
be displayed at all. Size is never rounded down to 0 kB.
That means if 0 kB is reported, you can safely assume
there was at least one pass of memtest and none of the passes
found a single faulty byte of RAM.
HardwareCorrupted
The amount of RAM/memory in KB, the kernel identifies as
corrupted.
