Memory controller improve user interface
Change the interface to use bytes instead of pages. Page sizes can vary across platforms and configurations. A new strategy routine has been added to the resource counters infrastructure to format the data as desired. Suggested by David Rientjes, Andrew Morton and Herbert Poetzl Tested on a UML setup with the config for memory control enabled.
