I'm confused by this whole MEMSTALL thing... I thought the idea was to
account the time we were _blocked_ because of memstall, but you seem to
count the time we're _running_ with PF_MEMSTALL.


And esp. the wait_on_page_bit_common caller seems performance sensitive,
and the above function is quite expensive.
