4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jann Horn <[email protected]>

commit 28e2c4bb99aa40f9d5f07ac130cbc4da0ea93079 upstream.

7a9cdebdcc17 ("mm: get rid of vmacache_flush_all() entirely") removed the
VMACACHE_FULL_FLUSHES statistics, but didn't remove the corresponding
entry in vmstat_text.  This causes an out-of-bounds access in
vmstat_show().

Luckily this only affects kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_VMACACHE=y, which
is probably very rare.
