ksm: move pages_sharing updates
The pages_shared count is incremented and decremented when adding a node to and removing a node from the stable tree: easy to understand. But the pages_sharing count was hard to follow, being adjusted in various places: increment and decrement it when adding to and removing from the stable tree. And the pages_sharing variable used to include the pages_shared, then those were subtracted when shown in the pages_sharing sysfs file: now keep it as an exclusive count of leaves hanging off the stable tree nodes, throughout.
