On a system with large amount of memory (256GB), invoking page-types can
take quite a long time, which is unreasonable considering the user only
wants a description of the flags:
# time ./page-types -d 0x10
0x0000000000000010 ____D_____________________________ dirty
real 0m34.285s
user 0m1.966s
sys 0m32.313s
This is because we still walk the entire address range.
Exiting early seems like a reasonble solution:
# time ./page-types -d 0x10
0x0000000000000010 ____D_____________________________ dirty
real 0m0.007s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.005s

Teach page-types to describe page flags directly from the command line.
Why is this useful? For instance, if you're using memory hotplug and see
this in /var/log/messages:
kernel: removing from LRU failed 3836dd0/1/1e00000000000010
It would be nice to decode those page flags without staring at the source.
Example usage and output:
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d 0x10
0x0000000000000010 ____D_____________________________ dirty
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d anon
0x0000000000001000 ____________a_____________________ anonymous
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d anon,0x10
0x0000000000001010 ____D_______a_____________________ dirty,anonymous

Introduce "-p|--pid <pid>" for walking the process address space. The
default action is to walk raw memory PFNs.
Both the virtual address and physical address of each present pages will
be listed:
# ./tools/vm/page-types -lp $$ | head -3
voffset offset len flags
400 11bebe 1 __RU_lA____M______________________
402 11bebc 1 __RU_lA____M______________________
Note that voffset/offset/len are now showed as hex numbers.
