/proc/meminfo:MemShared

Can anyone think of anything useful to print out here, or should it just be removed?

It's not indicative of the sharing level, and it's been handing back 0 for a while, so I say kill it.

I'm in favour of just removing it. 2.4-ac went through a phase of reporting tmpfs' shmem_nrpages (in kB) there; but it was an entirely different meaning for MemShared, needs the releasepage infrastructure of 2.4-ac for proper accounting (which I've never cared to ask for in mainline); and 2.4.20-ac always says 0 like everyone else.
